602 Priest Sacrifice Wine
Wang Baoyu really admired Cao Cao's approach, burned the joint letter, and relieved everyone's worries, but in exchange for his trust and loyalty.
Seeing that Cao Cao really didn't care about them, the civil and military officials regained their calm demeanor, Cao Cao slowed down and said: "Baoyu has made many merits since he came here, and the princes should be considerate and don't be disgruntled." ”
Hearing Cao Cao say this, the officials hurriedly nodded, although Cao Cao's words were quite polite, but basically it was already clear, if anyone can't get along with Wang Baoyu again, it will definitely cause big trouble, Kuai Yue and Huang Kui are examples.
Wang Baoyu arched his hand at Cao Cao to express his gratitude, Cao Cao nodded slightly, and said to the bottom: "Although Ma Teng has been captured, the Xiliang forces should not be underestimated, and he led the army to conquer in person. ”
"I would like to go with Cheng!"
"I do, too!"
"Swear to follow the prime minister!"
"This will never change!"
“……”
Immediately there was a scramble to sign up below, especially those officials who participated in the joint letter, and they were more proactive, so as to prove that the joint name with Huang Kui was purely impulsive.
The enthusiasm of the crowd was very high, and a few people argued.
Cao Cao pressed his hand and said, "The princes are united, which makes Gu very gratified." But the court must not be without ministers, and I hope that you will do your best to assist the saints, and do not slack off. ”
Everyone stopped talking, knowing that Cao Cao was going to start the roll call, and they all looked at Cao Cao with their eyes open, hoping to name themselves.
Sure enough, Cao Cao first named a group of generals, and then he named his old partner Xun You.
Xun You was very happy, tears of excitement filled his eyes, and hurriedly expressed his willingness to go out with the army to solve problems for the prime minister, and at the same time thanked the prime minister for his trust.
Cao Cao smiled and nodded, thought about it, and named Cheng Yu and Xun Yu.
The two of them were very surprised, they rarely went out with the army, and they were basically doing internal affairs, but since Cao Cao was named, they hurriedly nodded and agreed, looking very happy.
"Father, the child is willing to go together and help the father!" Cao Pi, who had not spoken, finally got up and spoke.
Cao Pi is in a good mood, and he didn't get involved in the joint book, which now seems to be a wise move. Now is the time to show loyalty, if he defeats Ma Chao, he will definitely increase his political chips in the succession.
"Pi'er has this heart, and I am deeply gratified for my father." Cao Cao first praised it with satisfaction, but did not agree, but instead nodded: "You don't have to go to this matter, read more and play less." ”
"Father! Child......"
"No need to mention it again."
"The child obeys his father's command." Cao Pi didn't dare to say more, but his heart was cold, obviously his father still didn't like him. Jia Xu quietly pulled Cao Pi and signaled him not to be angry and to remain calm at all times.
Cao Pi was extremely depressed and pretended to sit down again, but Cao Cao's next words made him unable to remain indifferent no matter what.
"Zijian, put down the wine glass." Cao Cao said to Cao Zhi again.
Cao Zhi is also a person who doesn't speak, and when he goes out to fight, he is neither a strategist nor has any experience in leading troops, so he probably won't point to himself. Cao Zhizheng was drinking happily, and when he heard Cao Cao say this, he hurriedly put down his wine glass, and said with a red face: "What kind of instruction does my father have, Zhi'er will definitely listen to it." ”
"Be greedy for wine and make mistakes, go to Xiliang with me to increase your knowledge." Cao Cao said.
"Huh?" Cao Zhi thought he had drunk too much.
Cao Cao frowned, very dissatisfied with Cao Zhi's slow reaction at this time, but still said: "This time, you must be careful, if you go on a business trip, your father will also deal with it impartially, and there will be no mercy!" ”
Cao Zhi understood this time, and the joy on his face couldn't be suppressed, and he said repeatedly: "Zhi'er thanked my father!" ”
A few families were happy and a few were sad, Cao Zhi couldn't close his mouth happily, and Cao Pi's face was covered with a layer of frost. What does Cao Cao mean by this, he refused his eldest son's request in public, but offered to let Cao Zhi participate, obviously wanting to promote him.
Cao Pi poured a glass of wine violently, ignoring Jia Xu's hints, his face was covered with dark clouds, as if it was going to rain. Cao Cao turned a blind eye to the change in Cao Pi's expression, and said unexpectedly: "Wenhe, you are calm and experienced in trouble, so go with me!" ”
"Thank you Prime Minister for your promotion, Jia Xu is willing to go together and give advice with all his heart." Jia Xu hurriedly agreed.
Cao Pi's face was even more ugly, Jia Xu was close to him and could be regarded as his first strategist. Now Cao Cao suddenly named Jia Xu again, what does it mean? must have learned that Jia Xu was close to him, and wanted to separate the two of them for a while, which was also a warning. Cao Pi was indignant and a little frightened at the same time, it seemed that his father did not have enough trust in him, so he poured a glass of wine bitterly.
As soon as Qiē seemed to be arranged, Cao Cao smiled and toasted everyone, and suddenly said: "Baoyu is also with me on the expedition to Xiliang, and he should also have a position." ”
Everyone didn't react much to Cao Cao's decision. Wang Baoyu is now a little celebrity beside Cao Cao, and he can often enter and leave the palace, and he can't be sued for the crime of colluding with the princess to plot misdeeds, so it is not an accident to follow the expedition at all.
As for the position, everyone thinks that most of them are the best men who accompany Cao Cao before and after the saddle.
"Lao Cao, you don't have to be a position, I'm just following the soy sauce." Wang Baoyu said with a smile.
Soy sauce? Cao Cao didn't understand, waved his hand and said, "These chores are in charge of yourself, so you don't need to worry about them." ”
Cao Cao looked around and said word by word: "Baoyu has uninhibited talents, and he serves as a military advisor as a sacrificial wine as appropriate!" ”
There was an uproar below, Xun You, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Jia Xu's eyes widened, they couldn't believe their ears, the military advisor sacrificed wine, the name was a bit strange, but it was the position held by Guo Jia back then, to put it bluntly, it was the head of the strategist, the chief of the general staff.
After staying up for most of his life, he was going to be led by a hairy boy, the four strategists were extremely dissatisfied in their hearts, but with a trace of bitterness, the prime minister's meaning was very simple, without these people, he could still fight Xiliang with Wang Baoyu.
"Lao Cao, what kind of official is the military advisor sacrificing wine, managing the wine jar?" Wang Baoyu didn't understand, and asked in a daze.
Cao Cao laughed, and then whispered: "This is my original job, similar to Zhuge Villager, the first strategist, leading all the strategists." ”
Wang Baoyu was very surprised, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I'll just follow, such an important position, let's give it to others!" ”
"Am I the one who changes the day? Don't shirk. Cao Cao said.
"Hehe, take care of it!" Wang Baoyu couldn't push it off, so he smiled and rushed down and arched his hand.
Everyone symbolically returned the salute, and although the four strategists also gave their hands, their heads turned to the side, obviously helpless and unconvinced.
