Chapter 158: Cao Pi is here
Three days later, Cao Pi led a group of people to rush over.
"The son-in-law visits his father." Cao Pi, who was wearing Rong armor, swung his cloak, knelt on one knee, and saluted Cao Cao with a fist.
"Get up! Day and night, the iron body can't bear it! Go down and rest first! Tomorrow morning, the meeting will be held in the account. Cao Cao didn't look up, his mind was all immersed in the battle reports collected in the past three days.
"No! Please also ask your father to take care of his body and not to work too hard. A touch of sadness flashed in Cao Pi's eyes, but after the bitterness, there was an inexplicable steaming fire.
Back in his tent, Sima Yi was already waiting there. "Childe, have you seen the prime minister?"
"Naturally. If you don't go to see your father first when you come to the camp, will you go to see Zijian first? Cao Pi took off his cloak and hung it on a hanger.
"What can the prime minister say? Or is there anything that says no? Sima Yi asked.
What can he say? He has always said little to me, and if it were Zijian, he would definitely shush the cold and ask for warmth. Cao Pi leaned into a chair and no longer concealed the anger in his heart.
"Childe, you misunderstood the prime minister. The reason why this is true to you is because you are not as delicate as the third son. The third son is only eight years old, but I am afraid that his combat power is not as good as that below.
Cheng is concise and concise to you, which means that he has absolute trust in you. Sometimes, the most rude things are done to the people closest to you. also asked the son to forgive his sins, his subordinates were not saying bad things about the prime minister, but giving examples.
Before you came, the Prime Minister summoned me several times to ask me about your recent actions. In front of the prime minister, your subordinates don't dare to tell lies, so you can only repeat your life trajectory word for word.
After the prime minister listened, he commented on you. It's just that this evaluation sounds to the subordinates, and it doesn't seem to be right about you. ”
"Oh? What did my father say about me? Did you praise me beautifully? ”
"You guessed it, that's it. The prime minister said that the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. Ziheng inherited Lone's Wen Tao Wuluo, much like Lone's youth, and you are also like Jiguo Junshi and Xun Lingjun. ”
"That's what he said? My father never praised me positively, and this is a real remark. Cao Pi laughed innocently like a child.
"Childe, depending on your subordinates, you still value you very much. The palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and as a father, he naturally doesn't want to see flesh and blood cannibalism. But he is also well aware of the fact that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.
The better you two perform, the more it means that there will be a battle in the future. Even if you are brothers, you will not be able to avoid this fratricidal battle for the throne. ”
"What do you mean?" Cao Pi didn't know too much about Sima Yi. Since he said this, you must have a way to do it.
"Filial piety."
"Filial piety?"
"That's right! Childe wants to use your true feelings to impress the prime minister. Let the prime minister leave an indelible impression on you in his heart. Filial piety comes first, although the prime minister is in the prime of life, but the years are not forgiving. The year of destiny was approaching him.
No matter what a person's character is, in the year of destiny, there will be some changes to a greater or lesser extent. Among these changes, feelings are the most obvious.
Therefore, son, you must use your filial piety to infect the prime minister from the bottom of your heart, and you must let him know that among the many sons, you are the most filial. ”
At the same time, in Cao Zhi's tent, Yang Xian shouted to Cao Zhi with a straight face: "Childe, now is not the time for you to hesitate. If you are one step behind, you will fall behind. You don't want to be an enemy of your brother, but your brother won't treat you like a brother.
Childe, wake up! If my estimation is correct, the prime minister will definitely use the current battle of Tianjiang as an indicator to evaluate the two of you.
Don't think that Cheng attaches great importance to this battle of Tianjiang. The prime minister is a man of foresight, and he has already seen the scene in more than ten years or even decades.
If you have a son now, maybe he can see his grandson in his fifties and sixties.
Immediate and long-term interests are the battle of Tianjiang. If the two of you brothers can gain something in this battle, then even if you lose this battle, the prime minister will be happy to return to the court.
On the contrary, the battle is won, but the two of you have not improved at all, or you have not gotten what he wants. Then, even if he returned triumphantly, there was a lot of unhappiness in his heart. ”
"Zude, is what you said serious? Father, would he think so? Cao Zhi was skeptical of Yang Xiu's words.
"Childe, whether what I said will happen or not, we will see tomorrow morning." Yang Xiu's eyes bloomed with confidence, at this time, even if Sima Yi stood here, he would be hurt by his gaze.
In the early morning of the next day, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi arrived at the door of the tent at the same time, and the two brothers nodded and smiled. Sima Yi and Yang Xiu, who followed behind them, were not as casual as them, but gave each other hands.
"Sit down, all of you! Separate the sides. Cao Cao put down the case file in his hand and stood up happily.
After they were seated, Cao Cao continued: "After thinking about it for a few days, Gu decided to launch the Battle of Tianjiang in three days. The time will be divided into left, middle and right armies.
The army on the left was led by Ziheng. In addition to the soldiers in the camp, the water ghosts you brought with you were also incorporated into the army on the left.
The army on the right was led by Zijian. In addition to the soldiers in the camp, you are under your own command.
Lone led the army in the middle and responded in the center. If one of the two of you is the first to break through, Lone will lead a large army to attack immediately. On the other hand, if one side is in a rout, the Lone Society will lead a large army to support immediately.
Whether it is a strong attack or support, Lone hopes that you can show yourself in the battle of Tianjiang and let Lone see a different you.
Maybe you don't think so, but Lone really feels that in front of Lone, you are too restrained and imprisons yourself firmly. Lone is your father, and Lone wants to see the real son, not the son in the mask of human skin.
Well, that's it! You can go back and get ready. ”
Cao Pi and Sima Yi were the first to stand up, and after bending down to salute, they slowly retreated.
Cao Zhi glanced at Yang Xiu in shock, and together with Yang Xiu, he saluted and retreated.
"Do you think it's really good to do that?" The little gentleman, who had not appeared for a long time, sat on Cao Cao's shoulder with Erlang's legs crossed.
"There is no good or bad, only whether it is good or not. They are all Lone's sons, and Lone doesn't want them to repeat the tragedy of history. Since history can be rewritten here, Lone might as well give it a go. Perhaps, this is their turning point. ”
"Alright! May you succeed. ”
