Since Pang Tong entered Runan City, he expanded the city defense, built a large number of buildings, as if to build Runan into a strong city in Jiangbei, Runan to and from Xudu is only a day away, Cao Cao has to listen to several scouts every day to report, to understand Pang Tong in Runan, what is the change.

Because of this, Guo Jia suggested moving the capital, and Cao Cao also knew in his heart that Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others were completely thinking about the foundation of the Cao family, but for Cao Cao, he didn't want to back down in front of Pang Shanmin.

Guo Jia saw Cao Cao's eyebrows, and he was worried, and said to Cao Cao: "The prime minister has newly obtained Hebei, it has been a few months, if the capital is moved to Yecheng, Hebei is stable, and Xu Du is now my Han capital, if the saint is here, when the Jingxiang army and horse arrive, the prime minister has scruples, how to deal with it calmly?" If we start a war, we will lose first, and if we start a war, we will lose the lead, which will be quite unfavorable to us! And Guo now has a plan to make Wen Ruo say more good things to Yecheng in front of the Son of Heaven, and the prime minister can follow the order of the Son of Heaven and move the capital to Yecheng, I don't know what the prime minister thinks, what is Guo's strategy? ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he drank all the wine in the cup and said to Guo Jia: "The strategy is a good strategy, but Cao doesn't like it in his heart." ”

Guo Jia couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "The prime minister is still fighting with the people of that Pang Mountain......

Seeing that Cao Cao was noncommittal, Guo Jia smiled and said: "The prime minister knows that in Guo's eyes, what is the biggest difference between the prime minister and the Pang Shanmin?" ”

"I want to hear about it." When Cao Cao heard Guo Jia's words, he aroused interest in his heart, and Guo Jia saw this. said to Cao Cao: "The prime minister is a hero in the world, but the mountain people are always a businessman!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Don't learn that flattery, Cao Mou, a hero, was defeated in the hands of a businessman some time ago." ”

"It's not a lie." Guo Jia shook his head slightly, restrained his expression, and said to Cao Cao: "The heroes are powerful." Merchants are reliant, this is the biggest difference between the prime minister and Pang Shanmin, and now the Central Plains has been repeatedly calculated by Jing Xiang. It seems that the strange schemes of the people of the Pang Mountains are frequent, but in fact, we have neglected those seemingly unimportant details between Jing Xiang's actions, which we now know. If you don't pay attention to it before, even Guo just thinks that Pang Shanmin wants to make some money from the Central Plains, but now it seems that this gathering sand into a tower, after accumulating a lot, it can affect the current situation in the Central Plains! ”

Cao Cao nodded approvingly. It's just that I have doubts in my heart, what Guo Jia said seems to have nothing to do with moving the capital.

The reason why Guo Mouyan is just a businessman is that he is now familiar with him. The businessmen did not let go of the slightest small profit, just like before we attacked Runan, for the sake of Runan not to lose, that Pang Shanmin actually dared to use tens of thousands of military horses to block the prime minister's 100,000 army! This is all because Runan is adjacent to Xudu, and now Guo knows that the Pang mountain people are planning in their hearts. How dare you not tell the prime minister, Xu is worried? Guo Jia looked sincere, and said to Cao Cao: "If the prime minister moves the capital, it can be ruined in one fell swoop, Guo knows that the prime minister is worried that the move of the capital will affect the reputation of the prime minister, but Guo doesn't know if the prime minister can think about it, and his reputation will be damaged for a while, which is more important than the reputation of a lifetime?" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was silent for a long time.

Cao Cao didn't know how to refute it, and after thinking for a long time, Cao Cao sighed: "Yecheng is not as prosperous as Xudu, and if Wen Ruo can persuade the saint to move the capital to Yecheng, how can this kind of behavior deceive the world's discerning people?" ”

Seeing that Cao Cao seemed to be intent on moving, Guo Jia smiled and said: "The matter of moving the capital is not trivial, Guo thinks that if the prime minister moves the capital, he should first create momentum, so that the people of the Central Plains will think that Yecheng is the land of Longxing!" ”

"How can the place where the original army was defeated in the past be the land of Longxing?" Cao Cao couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Feng Xiao's words, Cao Mou didn't dare to agree!" ”…,

"What if there is a vision in Yecheng?" Guo Jia said that, smiled weirdly, and said to Cao Cao: "Guo has heard that under Yecheng, the copper finch is buried deep ......."

When Cao Cao heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then suddenly, seeing that Guo Jiaxu had something to do, Cao Cao smiled and said: "How can Feng Xiao know about such a secret?" ”

"The prime minister can send the people to dig it up outside the city, if Xiangrui is alive, the prime minister should also obey the mandate of heaven." Guo Jia said that, Cao Cao laughed, and no longer talked to Guo Jia about moving the capital, and the two discussed for a while, and Cao Cao let Guo Jia leave in the mansion.

After another month, there was a messenger Pegasus to report, when the general of Pingbei Zhang He was hunting outside the city, he saw a vision in the mountains, and ordered someone to dig it up, and got a copper sparrow, which was known to the people of Jizhou, all said auspicious, Zhang He said in the letter, the copper finch was too huge, difficult to carry, so he ordered someone to fly to report to Xu Du, please make a decision.

After Cao Cao got Zhang He's letterhead, it was convenient for the palace to go to the top of the hall and put this matter in front of the civil and military officials, all the ways came, everyone heard that Yecheng excavated the bronze bird auspicious, and their hearts were curious, and the saint Liu Xie couldn't help but be curious, and said in the hall that he wanted to go to Hebei to watch the bronze bird magnificent.

"How can the Holy One leave the capital lightly?"

Many courtiers in the hall spoke out to dissuade him, but Liu Xie seemed to be resolute, and Shangshu Xun Yu seemed to be decisive to Liu Xie, and he was also quite supportive, Cao Cao saw that the ministers were arguing, so he pretended to hesitate, but he heard Xun Yu shout in front of the hundred officials: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books, and the saint wants to go to Hebei, but you are obstructed everywhere, which is not conducive to the growth of the saint." ”

When Liu Xie heard Xun Yu's words, he nodded thoughtfully, and said to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, I want to go to Hebei alone, and I also ask the Prime Minister to support one or two." ”

Cao Cao was embarrassed when he heard this, and said to Liu Xie: "Now what the monarchs say is reasonable, this matter can be arbitrary, if the saint wants to go to the north, Cao will order the army and horses to accompany him, and it is ...... to keep the saint safe."

Liu Xie heard Cao Cao's words, his face was overjoyed, but the courtiers in the hall did not know why, Cao Cao had always paid attention to the control of today's saints, but now he asked Liu Xie to go to Hebei to increase his knowledge, and for a while the ministers in the hall were confused, and they didn't know what Cao Cao's plan was.

Cao Cao saw the eyes of the ministers in the hall, all of them came, and said with a wry smile: "The saint should also take a look at the great rivers and mountains of my Han Dynasty, increase his knowledge, and Cao is also interested in the ancient auspiciousness, and now all the princes are recuperating, Cao Mou this time, he also wants to go out with the Son of Heaven and go to Hebei to see what Xiangrui looks like!" ”

Cao Cao said, and some discerning people have thought that maybe it is Jingxiang's development of Runan, which has made Cao Cao feel jealous in his heart, this visit to Hebei should be just a pretense, and its real purpose is to move the capital to Yecheng.

Although many courtiers are reluctant to be prosperous in Xudu, but compared to staying in Xudu, they are frightened every day, it is better to go to Hebei, a peaceful place, thinking of this, many courtiers are echoing, Cao Cao saw this, secretly happy in his heart, and said to the ministers: "In this case, Cao is preparing military horses here, and going to Hebei with the saint!" (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
