Chapter 64: The Three Taoyuan Brothers
"Don't believe me?!"
Cao Cao smiled and looked at Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan inscrutablely.
Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan shook their heads in unison.
What are you kidding, sleepwalking in three thousand worlds.
Lao Tzu's sleepwalking is too empty, and it is already very evil when he listens to it.
But the emperor sleepwalks through three thousand worlds, is there three thousand in the world?
"Actually, I didn't believe it at first." Referring to the past, Cao Cao said with emotion, "But do you know? When Your Majesty first saw me, he asked about the two of you. When I said that you were not there, Your Majesty was a little sorry. ”
"Brother, is my name already so loud? Even His Majesty already knew? Cao Ren asked with surprise on his face.
Cao Cao's face was suddenly full of black lines, he looked at Cao Ren and said, "Do you think that you are worthy of letting Your Majesty know your name with hundreds of people wandering between Huai and Si all day long?" ”
Cao Ren froze for a moment and muttered to himself, "It seems to be too!" ”
Cao Cao snorted lightly, and said with emotion, "Look at these many novelties, as well as Your Majesty's ability to predict the unknown, it's hard for me not to believe that Your Majesty has ever sleepwalked in the Three Thousand Realms!" ”
He took a sip of wine and then admonished, "You two are about to serve Your Majesty on an errand, so you must be careful and cautious. It doesn't matter if you make mistakes, but you have to be faithful. I may be able to take advantage of your mistakes, but if you deviate from your faithfulness, no one can save you. ”
"Today, I have great trust in those who trust. ...... to those who doubt"
Everywhere he spoke, Cao Cao suddenly stopped, and looked at Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan with solemn eyes.
"What about the doubters?" Xiahou Yuan asked.
Cao Cao smiled slightly, "Only the dead, Your Majesty will not suspect it." ”
Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan: ......
Cao Ren scratched the back of his head with a tangled expression, and said in a low voice: "It's not that Your Majesty is ...... Is it incompetent? Why is what my brother said completely different from what is rumored in the world? ”
Cao Cao's face, which was already a little dark, suddenly became even darker, "I see that you really want me to collect your body." ”
"No, no, just ask, ask!" Cao Renhan said with a smile.
"Rumors can't be true, and besides, some things are deliberate by His Majesty." Cao Cao said to the two of them with an extremely serious face, "The princess and doctor in this Luoyang City have almost been pitted all over by His Majesty, and the blood is flowing and drifting." But most of the people who think that His Majesty is incompetent are already dead, and those who are not dead are close to death. ”
"Some people may be cautious all their lives, but as long as they are caught by His Majesty once, there is only a dead end. So, before you take up your post, I have to say something to you. ”
"Small mistakes don't hurt, but big mistakes must not be made, especially under the nose of Your Majesty, maybe when you will meet the emperor on the street."
Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan's faces also became serious in an instant.
"Listening to my brother's tone, this errand seems to be really difficult to do......" Xiahou Yuan muttered with a sigh of relief.
Cao Cao said: "There is no need to be too nervous, Your Majesty is actually still magnanimous, and the rewards and punishments are clear." ”
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion downstairs.
When Cao Cao heard this, he looked out of the window and said, "Below, a strong man with a red face and long hair, a green face and a beard, I don't know what is actually whipping the shopkeeper here." ”
Cao Ren was immediately interested when he heard this, and immediately bypassed Xiahou Yuan and looked down at the window.
"Good boy, this is to kill people, don't they know that the shopkeeper here is a person arranged by His Majesty?"
Cao Cao sat down again, drank calmly, and said, "For the first time here, few people know about it. If I hadn't foreseen it, I'm afraid you two would have made a mess here. ”
"My brother miscounted one person, and there was a man with wide ears and long hands in the corner. Looking at the weapons worn by these three people, it seems that they are also martial artists. Cao Ren shouted as he watched.
"Brother, will you go down and have a look?" Xiahou Yuan asked curiously.
Cao Cao waved his hand, "What do you see, don't join in the fun." They will make trouble here, and nothing good will happen. ”
"Coming, coming, obediently, this soldier is really fast!" Cao Ren suddenly shouted excitedly.
When Cao Cao heard this, he leaned on the window again and looked down.
No matter what kind of status you are in, you have a heart to watch the excitement.
"Why is Zhang Xiong here?" Cao Cao glanced twice and muttered.
"Brother knows this person?" Cao Ren asked curiously.
"Zhang Xiong, the captain of the city gate." Cao Cao said.
Cao Ren was happy when he heard it, "Yes, these three reckless men seem to be suffering, hey, how can this start?" I'm so short-tempered, even more unscrupulous than I am. ”
Cao Cao's eyes lit up, "Although that bearded man is short-tempered, he is definitely a fierce general." If he does not die, he will be reused by His Majesty. ”
"Brother, I'm afraid your idea is going to come to naught, and you're already dead." Cao Ren said regretfully, "This guy is indeed brave, and when he went down with a spear, he pierced two people." ”
"How big is it, why do you still start to do it?"
"Looking at the other two, it seems that they don't want to do it, but as soon as this cheeky man makes a move, they have to do it."
Xiahou Yuan squeezed behind Cao Cao and Cao Ren with his feet, looked at him twice, and said, "Brother, why don't I wait and persuade him to make peace?" These three people don't look like they are nameless and unnamed. ”
Cao Cao was already strongly interested, and said without hesitation: "Go, go down and see!" ”
"Okay."
The three people who were extremely excited to see the excitement threw down half of their meal and hurried downstairs.
But when they went downstairs, the three people who made trouble were gone, leaving only the door of the Sunset Inn in chaos.
Cao Cao rushed out of the door to take a look, but he didn't see anyone, only saw the dust on the official road in the distance.
"It's a pretty fast run!" He muttered, turned back, and stopped the shopkeeper of the Sunset Inn, who was being helped.
"Why did those three beat you?" Cao Cao asked.
About forty years old, the kind-looking shopkeeper of the Sunset Inn sighed and said: "It's just because of small things." ”
"It's a trifle?" Cao Cao was a little surprised by this explanation of trivial things, and he was also a little unconvinced.
The shopkeeper suddenly slapped his thighs with both hands and shouted in a wailing voice: "Just because I let them line up, that bearded guy is resentful." You have also seen, how many diners are there in this hall at this time? ”
"When it came time to eat and serve the food, the guy tasted it and said that I had deceived them, it was obviously a beef leg, why did it become a cow when it came to them, but all the food here is pigs and sheep, how can there be cows? Cattle arable land is still in short supply, how can there be food delivery? ”
"The little old man is so good to say, that guy can't do it. He also said that the price of food in the inn is extremely high, and the people of the world can't eat wild vegetables to chew, and it is unkind and unjust for us to sell food at such a high price here. ”
"I didn't say a few words, but the guy tied me to the ground and whipped me. The inn is newly opened, and I have seen what kind of person is a little old man, but it is so fierce that it is rare. The key is that the ears are like donkey hair, and I won't listen to anything. ”
Cao Cao was speechless for a while, and only sighed after a while: "It seems that it is a fierce general who drinks spirits, rides strong horses, and acts without knowing how to be flexible." It's a pity that he killed people here, so it's not easy to do. ”
"What else to do, no matter which way he is a hero, dare to make such a fuss here, Captain Zhang will not let him have a good time! The angry old man is also! The shopkeeper gasped in pain and said viciously.
Cao Cao bowed his head silently, "At the feet of the Son of Heaven." ”
"It's all gone, it's all gone." A soldier stepped forward, waving his hands and shouting to the crowd.
Cao Ren shrunk his shoulders and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, my flesh is cold, brother, go, go." ”
"I didn't see a good show, but it delayed me from eating meat."
Cao Cao: ......
……
After listening to Zhang Xiong's report, Liu Wei basically determined the identities of Liu Bei and the others.
"Whipping the shopkeeper just because of queuing and eating, is this Zhang Fei's temper so fierce?" Liu Bianqi's nose was about to crooked.
This Taoyuan trio finally came, and because of this trivial matter, they killed people and absconded.
If there was no murder, Liu Wei would have turned a blind eye to this matter.
But the three of them actually killed two soldiers and seriously injured dozens of people.
If this matter is not treated strictly, the high-pressure situation he has deliberately created in the DPRK and China these days will disappear in an instant.
"Spread my will, hang in the four seas, and make Zhang Fei arrive within a time limit!" Liu Wei shouted in a sullen voice.
This incident made his mentality not an ordinary collapse.
Maybe it's also a fate.
He wanted to envelop these heroes to the court when they had not yet started, which seemed to be really unrealistic.
