Liu Xie's carriage galloped from the suburbs to the city, and Lu Rui asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you still need to play games with Your Majesty?" ”

Liu Xie looked at Lu Rui with displeasure and said, "No need, Lu Aiqing!" ”

Hehe, Liu Xie is upset, but what's the matter with me? I only watch good shows!

Soon, Liu Xie returned to the palace, and after returning to the palace, Liu Xie did not rest, but issued a holy decree to convene the courtiers! The poor ministers, who had just experienced Yang Feng's rebellion, were pulled to the main hall by Liu Xie before they could take a breath.

The officials were all embarrassed, and some of them were slightly injured, but there was no way, the emperor summoned them, and they still had to come.

Liu Xie looked at the officials below and was furious, what is this like? A huge sacrifice to the sky, and that's the end of it? Where is the royal majesty? Cao Mengde? What do you want?

About an hour later, Cao Cao went to court with a sword, followed by a group of civil and military personnel. Liu Xie saw Cao Cao's posture, another powerful minister? Liu Cheng calmed down, then tidied up his clothes and said, "Cao Aiqing, did Yang Feng catch it?" ”

Cao Cao arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Yang Feng has fled from Xudu under the cover of the soldiers, and his subordinates will definitely try their best to capture him and correct the dynasty!" ”

Liu Xie listened, what? Do you have a deployment and haven't caught Yang Bong yet? I haven't figured out whether Yang Feng is guilty or not, and now that the person has run away, there is no evidence, Cao Mengde, do you want to eradicate dissidents?

Liu Xie asked again: "What about the casualties of this rebellion?" ”

Xun You stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although Yang Feng's thief army is powerful, but the rabble is not to be feared, our army's losses are not big, but many ministers in the court died at the hands of traitors!" After speaking, Xun You handed over a list to Liu Xie.

After the little eunuch took the list, he handed it to Liu Xie, Liu Xie looked at it, one was unstable, and fell on the throne, these people, these people are ministers who ran out of Chang'an with themselves, the Xiliang army did not ask for their lives, once Yang Feng's rebellion, they were all dead?

Liu Xie is no longer the original Liu Xie, and he is still clear about Cao Cao's power in Yanzhou, Liu Xie suppressed his anger and asked: "Cao Aiqing, has Cao Aiqing already known about Yang Feng's rebellion?" ”

Liu Xie had already asked Cao Cao in private, but when he asked him in the court, the nature was different, and sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, it caused a thousand layers of agitation, and the ministers may not be talented, but they are masters in guessing the words!

Some of the ministers who were slightly injured began to blame Cao Cao, saying, "General Cao, has there been an arrangement?" Caught in danger and danger? ”

"Please do justice to Your Majesty, Abbot!"

Lu Rui looked at a group of crazy courtiers, and then at Cao Cao's staff. A group of fools, do you see it, Cheng Yu's old man is counting your heads, you are all located by Lao Cao's GPS, and you are being targeted by Cheng Yu, you don't even have bones left!

Seeing the ministers on both sides arguing, Liu Xie showed some weird smiles on the corners of his mouth! Still laughing? Liu Xie, do you think these courtiers who support you can have a good end? Exposed, exposed, it's really young people who can't hold their breath! Hehe, the middle father went to raid the house and asked me to go, and I will also take the opportunity to get a little!

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say!"

A thick voice pierced the entire hall, and the ministers on both sides were stunned for a moment, is there a third party? Lu Rui took a look, oh, the old fox, it's this old fox, Yang Biao, the father of Yang Xiu, the old fox who can't do anything with Lao Cao and the little fart!

Liu Xie took a look, Yang Biao? Hehe, this old minister is a powerful character, Liu Xie coughed and said, "Old lady, please speak!" ”

Yang Biao arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, General Cao has made meritorious contributions to quelling the chaos and should be rewarded, as for whether he knows in advance, this old minister thinks that it is not important!" ”

As soon as Yang Biao's words fell, some of the courtiers stood up one after another and said: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

There is still a group of conscious courtiers!

Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, and thought back to what happened, he was too impulsive, and he didn't think about dealing with the problem, Liu Xie waved his hand and said: "This matter is over, everyone Aiqing should step down!" The matter of the dead and wounded will be handed over to General Cao and Captain Yang! ”

Seeing this, the little eunuch shouted: "Retreat!" The crowd withdrew!

Liu Xie did not summon Cao Cao into the palace this time, and Cao Cao did not stay for a long time, but went back to his Sikong Mansion! Fish and water monarchs? I'm afraid it won't be seen in the future!

"The master is back?" Mrs. Bian saw Cao Cao walk in at the gate, and Cao Pi's other boys saluted Cao Cao at the back.

"Well, I'm going to take a shower now, tell the kitchen to prepare something, and no one is allowed to disturb me without my orders!"

Mrs. Bian was stunned for a moment, bowed down, and said, "Yes, master!" ”

"Daddy?" "Daddy!" Cao Cao ignored his children's calls and entered the mansion.

"Rui'er?" Mrs. Bian stopped Lu Rui, obediently, this is none of my business!

"Erniang!" Lu Rui bowed to Mrs. Bian.

Mrs. Bian asked, "Rui'er?" Sir, this is? ”

Lu Rui rolled his eyes and said, "Father Zhong is not in a good mood, today the traitors rebelled, and Father Zhong went to put down the chaos!" ”

The news of Yang Feng's rebellion must not have spread so quickly, because the imperial court has not yet decided! Mrs. Bian nodded and said, "I see, Rui'er is also tired, go and rest!" ”

"Farewell child!" Lu Rui arched his hand and retreated, Mrs. Bian is worthy of being the Empress Dowager of Great Wei in the future, knowing what to ask and what not to ask!

Lu Rui returned to his room, grandma's, I'm tired today, let's get a good night's sleep first! Lu Rui fell on his bed with a plop of his body, hugged Lao Cao's big tree, and lived a leisurely life!

Lu Rui slept until dinner time, whew! It's so comfortable, this is the life I want, Ling'er said on the side; "Childe, it's time to eat!"

Lu Rui nodded, changed his clothes, and went to the dining room to prepare for dinner.

"Madam, the master said he wouldn't eat it!"

"What? Don't eat it? Mrs. Ding glared angrily!

"The master has already had dinner, and now he is discussing things with Lord Xun and others."

"Well, in that case, let's eat!" For Cao Cao's not to eat, Mrs. Ding has nothing to say, Lao Cao doesn't eat, let's eat!

After dinner, Mrs. Ding left first, and the housekeeper came to Lu Rui and arched his hand and said, "Little Hou Ye, my lord invites you to go over and play chess with him!" ”

No way? Lao Cao was so depressed that he wanted to lose money? Okay, slaughter Lao Cao!

"Rui'er?"

"Erniang?"

"I know your middle father's temperament, if you don't come out to eat, you will definitely not be full, here are some snacks made by Erniang, you can take it and eat with your middle father!"

"Yes, Erniang" After Lu Rui let his subordinates take the snacks, he went to Cao Cao's residence.

Lu Rui came to Cao Cao's residence, which was Liu Xie's residence not long ago, and at this time, it was already a matter of fact!

Cao Cao was sitting in front of the chessboard at this time, staring at the chessboard, not knowing what he was thinking. "Middle Father?"

"Rui'er, here? Okay, come and play chess with the middle father, the middle father has prepared a lot of things today! ”

"Yes, Father!"

Cao Cao was obviously not in the state, and in less than an hour, he lost a lot of money. Lu Rui accepted Cao Cao's money and said, "Father Zhong, you lost again today!" ”

Cao Cao looked at Lu Rui, smiled and said, "Rui'er, your chess skills are getting better, and the middle father is getting worse and worse than you!" ”

"Hey, hey!"

Looking at the happy Lu Rui, Cao Cao suddenly asked: "Rui'er, if you treat someone sincerely and someone fails you, what will you do?" ”

Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, looked at Cao Cao, Cao Cao's face at this time was just a wry smile, was he disappointed? Is it sad? There is no way to know, judging from Cao Cao's actions during this time, he is indeed a courtier of Kuang Fu Han, but at this time when the imperial power is weak, the contradiction with Liu Xie must be inevitable! It's not something that can be made clear in a sentence or two.

Lu Rui scratched his head and said, "Father, if that's the case, I won't treat someone really anymore!" ”

"Won't treat someone really anymore?"

"Hahahaha, well said! I'd rather bear the people of the world than let the people of the world bear me! ”

Cao Cao pulled out his sword, and with a sword, he cut a seat next to him in half, this was Liu Xie's main position here!

Lu Rui was taken aback by all this, wasn't it, Lao Cao's words were forced out by himself? Grandma's, I won't be a celebrity in the future! Hehe, in the future, the history books will write like this, Lu Rui and Cao Cao played chess, and Cao Cao said the famous saying: I'd rather bear the people of the world, and never let the people of the world bear me!

Just when Lu Rui was obscene, the housekeeper suddenly came to report and said: "There is an adult outside the door who asks to see him, his surname is Zhong, his name is Xuan, and the character is Chang!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked the housekeeper to bring Zhong Miao in. Why did Zhong Xuan come at this time? Cao Cao seemed to be very happy? Looking for talent? It doesn't seem right, although Zhong Miao is a great talent, but Cao Cao looks like this, as if he has calculated something accurately and looks proud? Could it be that Cao Cao knew that Zhong Xuan would come?

Soon, Zhong Xuan came to the study under the leadership of the housekeeper.

"Zhong Xuan, Zhong Yuanchang, I've seen Lord Sikong!"

"Yuan Chang hurry up, please get up, this Si Sikong Yuan Chang has been talented for a long time, and it is a blessing to see it today!"

"Thank you, Lord Sikong!"

"Master Hou is also there? Zhong Xuan has seen Hou Ye! ”

Lu Rui was just counting what Cao Cao lost to him, and when Zhong Miao greeted him, Lu Rui raised his head and was stunned, this is Zhong Xuan? Looks like you're in your twenties? No, Zhong Xuan should be a middle-aged man in his forties, looking so young? This is Zhong Xuan, who gave birth to Zhonghui in his seventies? It can't be a youkai!

Zhong Miao saw Lu Rui staring at him, so he asked, "Master Hou?" What's wrong with Yuan Chang? Why did Hou Ye look at Yuan Chang like this? ”

Grandma's, you can't say you know your actual age and think you're a monster, right? Lu Rui pointed at Zhong Xuan and said, "Your hat is very good-looking!" "Zhong Xuan is wearing a hat sold by merchants in the Western Regions this time, which is not often found in the Central Plains, and it is probably to hide his identity!

Zhong Miao was stunned for a moment and said, "Master Hou, if you like it, Yuan Chang will give it to Master Hou?" ”

Lu Rui shook his head and said, "A gentleman doesn't take advantage of others!" ”

Cao Cao and Zhong Miao laughed out loud when they saw Lu Rui's old appearance.

After laughing, Zhong Miao and Cao Cao were seated separately, and after the next person served tea, Cao Cao began to get straight to the topic, saying: "Yuan Chang, in the past, if Wen recommended Yuan Chang to this Sikong, this Sikong appreciated Yuan Chang's talent, and Chang'an protected His Majesty from being slaughtered by the Xiliang Army, and Yuan Chang contributed a lot!" ”

Zhong Xuan arched his hand and said, "Lord Sikong is wrong, this is Yuan Chang's duty!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, and after taking a sip of tea, he stared at Zhong Xuan and said, "Yuan Chang, I came to Sikong Mansion just to see this Sikong, let's say, Yuan Chang's real intention of coming here!" ”

started, the formal conversation began, Zhong Xuan looked at Cao Cao's sharp gaze, and said unhurriedly: "When Yuan Chang first arrived in Xu Capital, he wanted to serve the imperial court, but he had no way out, and now he has come to Sikong Mansion to ask for a spare job and be loyal to the Han!" ”

Grandma's, Zhong Xuan came to ask for a job? This isn't, if you want to be effective, you can do it, what are you doing with so much nonsense!

Cao Cao's eyes rolled, as if he wanted to see Zhong Xuan's flaws, but Zhong Xuan had been looking at Cao Cao neither humbly nor arrogantly, and after the two sides looked at each other for a quarter of an hour, Cao Cao laughed and said: "Yuan Chang is polite, this Sikong has always admired Yuan Chang's talent, and with Yuan Chang helping me, why worry about big things?" ”

Zhong Xuan arched his hand and said: "Lord Sikong has an overreputation, not only Yuan Chang, but also many staff members who admire Lord Sikong also want to follow him!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and said: "Ben Sikong knows, Yuan Chang, it's getting late, I won't keep you, tomorrow I will send Gongda to visit your house, today, Ben Sikong is a little tired." ”

Zhong Xuan arched his hand and said, "Yuan Chang farewell!" Then the butler went out with Zhong Xuan. After Zhong Miao left, a shadow appeared in the house again, and grandma's, the shadow strategist came out again!

In the dark shadow, the advisor said: "Congratulations to the lord, it seems that people of insight in the court will support the lord!" ”

After Cao Cao heard this, he smiled, yes, the people of insight in the court really support him, the world belongs to the Liu family, but the court belongs to the ministers! For the benefit of their respective families, they can only serve Cao Cao. It's just me! Cao Mengde, who is an all-round civil and military talent, is the one who calms the world, and he is also a hero who can fight for the greatest interests of the ministers!

"Everyone basically guessed correctly, one of the mysterious strategists is Xi Zhicai, but the mysterious strategists are a trio, known as: Cao Mengde exclamation (everyone is familiar with this, the same as Athena's exclamation, Cao Mengde exclaimed, shocking ghosts and gods!) Cripple Zhuge and scourge Soochow)"
