Chapter 612: Cao Cao's Request

"But all peerless beauties, just like the country, treasures, and high-level mental methods, have always been flocking to them. And how can these peerless beauties marry ordinary people like the four people in this picture, their husbands are Lu Bu, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Zhang Ji. Which is not a generation master, don't underestimate Zhang Ji, this guy used to be a big celebrity in Dong Zhuo, if it weren't for Dong Zhuo's downfall, he would have occupied a place in the court. Of course, there is a gap between Zou's beauty and the first three, but it is coquettish and soft enough. I saw it once when I was in Luoyang, and it was unforgettable......"

Cao Cao looked infatuated, and his expression was indescribably obscene and ambiguous.

Shi Xin said helplessly: "Brother Cao, let's get down to business." ”

"Haha, it seems that Brother Shi doesn't agree with Brother Fool's statement. It's okay, you keep listening. Cao Cao didn't look like he was joking, "Robbing their wives is like robbing the country, and you will get great satisfaction from it." For example, if you are the crown prince and take over the country from the emperor's father, that is not the ability. But if you are a poor and white commoner, working hard all the way, overcoming obstacles, and becoming the master of the country, that sense of satisfaction, that sense of accomplishment, is a completely different feeling. Hehe, just think about it. ”

Shi Xin squinted at Cao Cao, this person was so brazen, he still had such a crooked reasoning. Thinking deeper, it seems to make sense.

"Is this a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is better than a concubine, and a concubine is better than stealing, and it is better to steal than to steal. Shi Xin muttered.

"No, no, no......" Cao Cao shook his head violently, "Your name is Lieyan, the general nature of ordinary men, they put all shit and garbage in their mouths, in fact, they are beasts doing obscene things." Like me, using my strength to dominate his wife, or using my charm to make his wife take the initiative to give her arms, and even more excessive husbands shoehorn their wives to please me, this is a kind of state. I ask you if you're afraid!"

"Domination of strength...... Charm...... Realm" Shi Xin was dumbfounded, Cao Cao actually said that "liking wives" was so lofty, which in itself was a kind of "realm".

"Truth be told, these four women are a way for me to motivate myself. Men's hobbies come and go: power, money, fame, women. Those so-called hermits are all deceitful and famous, and they don't make sense. If it is really a hermit, who said the term "hermit", most of them are those who have no real talent and real learning, and they escape from reality under the name of "hermit". There are also a small number of people who may have strength, but they are just people who are waiting for the price to sell, and they still can't escape the above four points of male commonality. ”

Cao Cao scoffed at the "hermit", and Shi Xin wanted to say that he was a bit biased, but the words came to his lips and he stopped it.

"And those so-called great sages, great good people, don't they do things with a certain purpose"

Cao Cao complained, "Since everyone can't avoid vulgarity, then why should we hide it, if we like power, we chase it, and if we like beauties, we will snatch it, even if there are some strange "habits", it doesn't matter, if you use it well, you can motivate yourself." ”

"My ideal is to build a luxurious Tongque platform in the national capital, and then place two sub-platforms on the left and right, and put Jiangdong Erqiao in the sub-platform respectively, and the main platform in the middle is specially reserved for Diao Chan. After the early dynasty, I will meet with foreign envoys here to raise the prestige of our country. I will also gather the ministers inside, feast a few times, and in the wind and snow, or exalt the words. In the evening, you will stay here overnight, take the beauty into your arms, and watch the rivers and mountains. If life can be like this, what more can a husband ask for?"

When Cao Cao said this, his face shone with a yearning brilliance. After being drunk for a while, it turned into a boundless loneliness.

"Brother Shi, you follow!"

Cao Cao led the way, climbed out of the windowsill, and with a slight leap, he reached the top of the Tongque Terrace.

Shi Xin followed.

There are no stairs outside, so you need to be agile to get to the top. This is not difficult for two high-level pulse masters. The two quickly climbed up, Cao Cao took the lead in sitting on one of the wings of the bronze sparrow, and Shi Xin drew the gourd in the same way, taking one side with him.

The bronze finch is still woven from bamboo and rattan, lifelike, and spreads its wings and flies high. There is another bronze finch lying on its head. It looks like it is cast in bronze, the style is simple, and it should be a bit historical.

"This is the real bronze sparrow that Cao Cao dug up," Shi Xin couldn't help but think.

The wind in the wild is particularly strong, and the Tongque Platform occasionally shakes, and this feeling is like sitting on the back of a small gold and silver and spreading its wings and flying high, light and fluttering.

The two of them held a large bronze finch between their legs, moving with the wind, and there was a sense of floating out of the dust.

As far as the eye can see, the sky is no longer as dark as when it first came, and it is gradually dawning.

Shi Xin thought to himself: The world is wonderful, who would have thought that Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei, and I would climb high and look far away on this dangerous platform, and even better know that we are not friends but enemies. Maybe this is the sympathy between heroes.

"Brother Shi, that is the real bronze sparrow I just mentioned, can you go and get it for me" Cao Cao suddenly spoke.

Shi Xin put away his thoughts, leaned forward, and put his hand on the real bronze sparrow as he said.

There is an ingenious base underneath the bronze finch that holds it securely. Shi Xin pulled it and took it off. It is quite heavy to start with, and the top is extremely smooth, which should be why Cao Cao usually holds it in his hand for enjoyment.

This is Cao Cao's deep love, and it is also one of the driving forces that drives him forward, which has extraordinary significance to him.

Even though he knew that the copper finch was hard, Shi Xin's movements were still very gentle, like a real bird was afraid of strangling it to death if she used force. After taking it off, it didn't stay too long, and handed it over to Cao Cao.

"Thank you!"

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to take it, and as usual, his left hand gently held up the copper sparrow's abdomen, starting from its head and stroking it all the way down its back, again and again.

His face reappeared with brilliance, but there was a hint of reluctance, a hint of determination, and a hint of sorrow.

"Brother Shi, the bronze finch will be handed over to you in the future, help me keep it!" Cao Cao suddenly handed over the bronze sparrow.

Shi Xin didn't expect him to have this request, and shook his head like a rattle, "No, no! After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "No matter what the outcome of this battle is, in short, I promise you that this will be the inheritance of your Cao family, and it will always be owned by your Cao family." ”

Cao Cao squinted at Shi Xin as if he were looking at a monster.

"Those who do big things are not informal, and it is not too cruel to do so. You must not deal with the enemy with the kindness of a woman. It's naΓ―ve to think that you want to spare me and my three sons. Although your overall strength is better than mine, it is not your turn to pity me. How do you know that I didn't deliberately give in today, and when it comes time to actually go to the battlefield, I will fight back"

Shi Xin was silent. After the confirmation of his divine sense, he knew that Cao Cao was a dying person, so why should he refute him for the sake of momentary anger?

"Let's go on!"

Cao Cao suddenly threw the bronze sparrow over, and Shi Xin had to reach out to catch it.

"By the way, do you remember what I said below?how the Bronze Bird Terrace was built, and what each floor told you?"

"Remember!"

Cao Cao looked to the east, his gaze was deep, "Okay, let's talk about the real purpose of my calling you." You came alone, which is your trust in my Cao, and you have unparalleled courage and courage. Aside from a few minor shortcomings, I didn't pick the wrong person. ”

Shi Xin is angry, and the "inconspicuous shortcomings" are probably "women's kindness" or something. But no matter what Cao Cao said, he had already decided to spare his sons after the battle.

"Tomorrow's big battle, I will do my best, even if I try my last breath, I will fight you to the death. I'm not like you, I don't frown when it's time to kill. If I lose, I'll give you three great gifts. These three gifts are related to what I just said at all levels, and they can solve the three great problems on your way to domination in the future. ”

As soon as Shi Xin heard that there was a "courtesy", he suddenly came to his senses, and kept speculating in his heart about what it was.

"If you lose or stalemate with me, proving that you are not qualified to accept my gifts, then don't blame me. I will announce my joining Sima Yi immediately, what will be the consequences, I don't need to say that you will also have a judgment, right?"

You can think of it on your toes that if Sima Yi and Cao Cao form an alliance, their territory will account for most of the Han Dynasty, and with overwhelming troops, Shi Xin will have no chance to turn over at all.

"Then this bronze sparrow" Shi Xin didn't seem to be a lie to Cao Cao, so what did the previous teaching and the copper finch in his hand mean?

"My heart is still inclined to you, I really don't like Sima Yi. When I think of the lives of the people under his rule, I hate it. Cao Cao sighed, "The bronze sparrow is regarded as a wish of mine, I hope you don't let me down." ”

There is another reason why Cao Cao didn't say it, he was a dying person, and his childhood friends Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, and Zhang Jiao all became Sima Yi's corpses. The thought of being driven by others after death, and not even having the opportunity to settle in the ground, feels sad to think about.

"I have a request, if you defeat me, can you help me fulfill a wish - to build a bronze finch platform in the national capital, and place my bronze finch on the top, with the finch beak facing east, so that it can see the sunrise for the first time every day"

Cao Cao seemed to have made up his mind to die, these words sounded like his last words, Shi Xin's nose was sour, and he barely squeezed out a smile, "If there is a day, Tongque Terrace will be the most luxurious building in the world." On the top floor, I will erect a statue of Brother Cao and ask my father-in-law, Cai Yong, to personally write the four characters: the image of the king of Wei. The room is full of portraits of beautiful women, and there are countless pictures of the spring palace, and the beautiful wives are cleaned every day and incense is offered. Brother Cao thinks my idea is not good."

Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he stroked his beard and exclaimed, "Wonderful, wonderful!"

It was at this moment that the rising sun finally rose in the east.

The faint sunlight spreads on the ground, and it looks vibrant.

Even the bronze finch in Shi Xin's hand was covered with golden brilliance on the cyan surface.

Shi Xin muttered, "Brother Cao, it's dawn!"

"yes, it's dawn!" Cao Cao looked at the east and said lightly, "The time has finally come to fight to the death!"

The two glanced at each other, and the fighting spirit rose.
