Hearing this, Cao Cao pretended to be grateful on his face, but there were not too many emotional fluctuations in his heart.

Liu Xie stretched out his hand to help Cao Cao up.

Then he continued to ask questions.

"I don't know what I can do here?"

When Liu Xie's voice fell, Cao Cao on the side couldn't help but smile.

"Your Majesty, Taiwei Xi is going to Xuzhou this time, and the minister specially invites Your Majesty, Taiwei Xu and the governor of Xuzhou, and serve as the pastor of Xuzhou!"

Cao Cao opened his mouth, without the slightest hesitation, and directly confided out his thoughts.

His guilt for the drama.

Now, that's all you can do!

Hearing this, Liu Xie was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao dared to come to find himself in this kung fu, and what he did was just to help Xi Yu invite Ren Xuzhou Mu.

In the final analysis, this matter is just an edict.

It doesn't really matter.

What's more, the prestige of the Han Dynasty is actually nothing.

Within the prefectures and counties, officials appoint and dismiss on their own, and there is no shortage of things to do as state ministers and taishou on their own.

However, Cao Cao specially asked about his own affairs this time, which somewhat made Liu Xie feel a little good.

After all, with such a clear order, even if Cao Cao does not pass through himself, there is no problem with issuing it directly.

Now Cao Cao can take the initiative to come over and ask himself, which is a respect.

A meaning of putting yourself as the Son of Heaven in your eyes.

Liu Xie was in a good mood, and naturally there was no reason to refuse such a request.

Of course, he couldn't refuse.

Cao Cao was able to say such a thing, and the meaning in his heart was already clear.

"In this way, let's do what Qing said!"

Liu Xie nodded yes.

Cao Cao saw that the other party was in a good mood, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

After returning to Xuchang this time, he learned that Liu Xie was almost taken out of Xuchang by Dong Cheng, Yang Biao and others, and Cao Cao was still quite concerned.

He knew in his heart that if Liu Xie was unwilling, it seemed that Dong Cheng, Yang Biao and others would not be able to take Liu Xie hostage from the palace.

And the root cause of such chaos in Xuchang is Liu Xie himself.

The reason why he didn't make his own decisions this time, but came to ask Liu Xie, Cao Cao wanted to take this opportunity to see if the other party had too much resentment in his heart.

Now it seems that there may be this resentment, but for the time being, it is not a big deal.

After knowing this, Cao Cao didn't say anything.

The rest of the things will not be too late to talk about tomorrow when the court meets.

……

After talking about the drama, Cao Cao followed Liu Xie and talked for a while, and they also talked happily with each other.

After leaving the Han Palace, Cao Cao began to slowly take Xu Chu back to Sikong Mansion.

This kung fu is in Cao Cao's heart.

In addition to the matter of Xi Yu, the most important thing now is to discuss how to crusade against Yuan Shu.

And since Yuan Shu became emperor to the present, except for the document he issued at the beginning to ask for thieves, to the current situation among various states and counties, the response has been mediocre.

Shilin, for Yuan Shu's move to become emperor, is quite indignant.

It's just that after all, this has little impact on Yuan Shu.

Now it is not a simple matter to call on the princes of the world to jointly crusade against Yuan Shu in the name of the Son of Heaven.

These people, on the surface, may obey the name of the imperial court.

However, secretly, no one was willing to send troops to fight against Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao was clear in his heart.

Come to think of it, these princes of the world, all they can see in their eyes now is the one-third of an acre of land in their hands.

Cao Cao thought like this, took two steps forward and did not go to Sikong Mansion, but took Xu Chu to the Xuchang Office.

ordered Xu Chu to gather all the generals and come to the government office to discuss matters.

……

Xuchang Administration.

When Xun Yu and others arrived at the government office, it was even the time of the year.

Above the horizon, it was already night, and a full moon hung high.

At that time, Cao Cao asked people to light a row of bright lanterns, and when Xun Yu and others arrived, they saw Cao Cao sitting on top of the chief of the government office.

"Big brother!"

After everyone arrived, Cao Cao did not speak, and Cao Hong and others on the side thought that Cao Cao's anger in his heart had disappeared.

Someone couldn't help but shout.

Hearing this, Cao Cao glanced at the other party and didn't bother to pay attention.

He glanced at Xun Yu and Xun You.

"Wen Ruo, Gongda, tomorrow I want to meet with the court, and ask Your Majesty to crusade against Yuan Shu, what do you think?"

Cao Cao asked casually.

Xun Yu, who heard this, did not speak, and Xun Yu on the side nodded.

Yuan Shu rebelled and called the emperor, Cao Cao had not returned before, and now that he has returned, it is natural to express it.

Nowadays, it is natural to ask for the other party.

He expressed his approval, and Cao Cao spoke again.

"By the way, I want to play Your Majesty, play Yu to lead Xuzhou, and serve as Xuzhou Mu!"

This was said abruptly, Xun Yu on the side heard this, and couldn't help but look up at Cao Cao.

Hearing Cao Cao say this, he realized that the letter that Xi Yu left for the other party, Cao Cao thought that he should have read it.

Looking at the current situation, Cao Cao doesn't seem to have changed much about Xi Yu's departure.

That's fine, but that's fine.

Let Xi Yu lead Xuzhou, in Xun Yu's opinion, it is just right.

"Big brother!"

It seems that he heard that let Xi Yu lead Xuzhou to serve as Xuzhou Mu, Cao Hong and others, and this kung fu was somewhat dissatisfied.

He joked about what kind of person Fengyi was.

Even if you want someone to supervise Xuzhou, you should choose people within your own clan!

What is the situation of choosing an outsider!

The people of the Cao clan had some opinions after hearing Cao Cao's words.

It's just that Cao Hong just shouted, and before he could say anything, Cao Cao's gaze turned in an instant.

"What are you going to say?"

"Why let Fengyi serve as the pastor of Xuzhou!"

"Why, let one of you do it?"

Cao Cao sneered, eager to throw Xi Yu's letter in the faces of these guys.

"With your ability, you can hold Xuzhou, and you can deal with those people in Xuzhou?"

"What you did before, I haven't settled accounts with you!"

"Since you are here today, it's good, it's a lot of things to do!"

"Go back and tell those people, but if I am not in Xuchang, when there is chaos, the people of the Cao family clan in Xuchang will be dismissed, let them go back to me and think about it behind closed doors!"

"When will you reflect on it, when will you understand, come to me again!"

The resentment in his heart exploded in one breath, and Cao Cao worked hard to hand over Xi Yu's letter to Xun Yu on the side.

"Wen Ruo, this is the letter that Xi Yu left me before, look at it, I want to announce it to the world, what do you think!"

？？？

Picking up the letter handed over by Cao Cao, Xun Yu was a little confused!

He didn't know what it was, but when he heard Cao Cao say this, he realized something to some extent.

Cao Cao's approach must be to bring back Xi Yu's heart.

That's not unavoidable.

He didn't rush to watch, just nodded and answered.

"Ming Gong is like this, Yu knows!"

After putting the letter in his robe, Xun Yu couldn't help but look up at Cao Cao.

After talking about Xi Yu, what should be said now is how to crusade against Yuan Shu, and deal with the princes of the world.

Now, Cao Cao has just brought back 200,000 troops, and they still need to be repaired.

In addition, now that winter is about to begin, it is not suitable to raise troops in a hurry.

And the matter of Yuan Shu becoming the emperor is naturally impossible to put on hold.

In addition, the reactions of the princes of the world were quite different.

"Duke Ming, now, you can make an edict from the Son of Heaven and call on all the princes of the world to jointly raise an army to defeat Yuan Shu!"

Xun Yu spoke.

Hearing this, Cao Cao on the side nodded when he heard this.

"I know in my heart, but, it is not easy to count on the princes of the world to send troops to defeat Yuan Shu at this time!"

Cao Cao let out a sigh.

Now, on the bright side, he will take the initiative to crusade against Yuan Shu, and he must also crusade against Yuan Shu, only himself.

The rest of the princes, who nominally obeyed the imperial edict, would also delay and delay in the future.

Counting on those princes is simply not something to count on.

And if he continues to lead troops to fight against Yuan Shu this time, Cao Cao is worried about the instability of the Guanzhong region.

Originally, this westward expansion was to completely control and pacify the entire Guanzhong region in one fell swoop.

But, who would have thought that at this moment, Yuan Shu would actually make such a move as the emperor.

It really surprised Cao Cao.

In desperation, he could only temporarily put aside the road to the west, and chose to return to the army to defeat Yuan Shu.

"What Ming Gong is worried about is nothing more than chaos in the land of Guanzhong!"

"This matter is easy!"

Seeing Cao Cao's kung fu frowning, Xun Yu on the side of Xun Yu seemed to understand something in an instant.

He didn't hesitate at all.

Originally, Xun You followed Cao Cao to plan to flatten the entire Guanzhong and Sili regions in one fell swoop.

It's just that the world is impermanent, and Yuan Shu's move to become emperor disrupted their strategy of westward expansion.

However, the problem of Guanzhong and Si Li.

In fact, in Xun You's opinion, it is not too much trouble.

Nowadays, the most powerful army in the entire Guanzhong region is Li Dao's army, and Li Dao is not very difficult to solve.

In addition to Li Dao, in the entire Guanzhong and Sili regions, the rest are some rogues and the like who are making trouble everywhere.

Just send a general to settle the matter.

It's not hard to say.

Hearing Xun You speak, Cao Cao's eyes rose in an instant, and after his eyes fell on Xun You, Cao Cao couldn't help but speak.

"Gongda already has a good plan in mind?"

"Let's hear about it!"

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly, and his tone was quite excited.

Hearing this, Xun You did not hesitate at all, and directly opened his mouth to explain.

"The Duke of Ming has already sent a servant to shoot Pei Mao into Guanzhong, but this time he can send an edict to send him to win over the generals in Guanzhong and crusade against Li Dao together!"

"Moreover, Zhong Xuan of the Yingchuan Zhong clan is quite talented, and when he heard about his Xuchang mutiny, he didn't make too many moves!"

"Duke Ming can also send him to Guanzhong this time, stationed in Chang'an, and supervise the troops in Guanzhong, so that Guanzhong and Sili areas will be worry-free!"

Xun You opened his mouth and directly came up with a method for targeting Guanzhong and Sili regions.

After hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes couldn't help but brighten up a little.

Pei Mao, the confessor he sent before, he almost forgot that he was going west this time, and he planned to let him cooperate, and then pacify the entire Guanzhong and Sili regions. 、

Now that it is impossible to go west, Xun You's idea is just right.

And Zhong Xuan, at the time of the Xuchang Mutiny, although he indulged the Son of Heaven out of the palace on the surface, compared with Yang Biao and Dong Cheng and others.

Zhong Xuan is more aware of current affairs.

This time, Xun You mentioned the move of dispatching this person to Guanzhong, which was not bad.

First, the entire Xuchang can be completely cleaned up, and it can also solve the troubles in Guanzhong.

It couldn't be better.

Cao Cao nodded: "What Gongda said is good, when the court meeting tomorrow, I will play Your Majesty, so arranged!" ”

After solving the problem of Guanzhong, all that remains now is when to send troops to attack Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao is thinking about what to do!

Xun Yu on the side saw that his nephew had come up with a strategy for Guanzhong, and he also thought of one person.

"Ming Gong, but I forgot Sun Ce, who has a good reputation in recent days!"

Some time ago, Sun Ce directly told the world that he had broken with Yuan Shu.

And now, most of the territory under Yuan Shu's command, in the final analysis, was attacked by Sun Ce.

If Sun Ce can take the initiative to send troops to fight against Yuan Shu, then things will not be easier.

Xun Yu mentioned Sun Ce, and Cao Cao couldn't help but raise his head and look at Xun Yu.

Sun Ce?

Thinking of this guy, Cao Cao's eyebrows couldn't help frowning.

"Wen Ruo, what do you mean by this?"

Cao Cao guessed something in his heart, but seeing that Xun Yu's voice hadn't finished yet, he planned to listen to the other party first and then watch it.

Xun Yu followed and spoke.

"Duke Ming, since Sun Ce has already informed the world that he broke with Yuan Shu, his teammates on the bright side of the Han Dynasty are still quite respected!"

"This time, it will take time for our army to go on the expedition, so you might as well use the edict of the Son of Heaven to send Sun Ce to attack Yuan Shu first!"

"Come to think of it, then Sun Ce won't refuse!"

Xun Yu opened his mouth, and Cao Cao suddenly understood.

Just because Sun Ce was dissatisfied with the edict given to him by the imperial court before, it can be seen that this person's ambition is not small.

Before, there was a friendship between him and Yuan Shu, no matter how you say it.

Even if Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor, Sun Ce never directly sent troops to attack the other party, and in the final analysis, he still had some scruples.

However, if he uses the edict of the Son of Heaven, the ambitious Sun Ce will definitely not refuse in his heart.

Xun Yu's words can be regarded as speaking to Cao Cao's heart.

At present, it will take time for the army to go on the expedition, but let Sun Ce take the first step to crusade against Yuan Shu, on the one hand, try Sun Ce's depth.

On the other hand, it can also relieve the pressure on Xuzhou.

If Sun Ce attacked Yuan Shu, then Yuan Shu naturally did not have time to send a large army to attack Xuzhou.

And so it couldn't be better!

This kung fu, the advice of the uncle and nephew of the Xun family made Cao Cao feel extremely good.

It's just that, compared to Cao Cao's mood, the generals of the Cao family clan are in a worse mood than the other.

For Cao Hong and others, I don't know what Cao Cao thinks.

Obviously, Fengyi has already left Xuchang with his family, and this move is obviously a rebellion.

In this kung fu, Cao Cao is not in a hurry to crusade against the other party, but also to show the other party as Xuzhou Mu, which is unbelievable.

It's just that Cao Hong and others are more or less aware of Cao Cao's temperament.

Even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, at this time, they were not in a hurry to express their opinions.

After all, everyone is still afraid of Cao Cao.

This kung fu, opening the mouth, is tantamount to looking for scolding.

It's night!

When everything was almost discussed, the people in the office dispersed!

After coming out of the government office, Xun Yu, who returned to the Xun family, lit a candle at night after returning to the mansion.

Only then did he get out of the Xiyu letter that Cao Cao handed to him.

After opening the letter, Xun Yu was somewhat stunned.

After reading the content, the corners of Xun Yu's mouth couldn't help but turn up.

He understood why Cao Cao made such a move, and why he would play a role as the pastor of Xuzhou.

And Xi Yu's letter also made Xun Yu's heart a lot easier.

Now it seems that the relationship between Cao Cao and Xi Yu has not changed at the moment.

This is the best thing for Xun Yu.

Now the two, one is in Xuchang and the other is in Xuzhou.

It is a little farther away, and it is just right to arrive.

Cao Cao intends to ease the relationship between the two this time, and a Xuzhou pastor has already made everything clear.

And the letters left by Xi Yu just say it all.

After receiving the letter, Xun Yu felt a little relieved.

As long as there are no problems between the two, it will not be difficult for the world to calm down.

The rest is a matter of time.

……

Following!

Han Palace court.

Cao Cao, as discussed last night, as soon as he opened his mouth, he directly played Yu Yu as Xuzhou Mu in the court.

And without Yang Biao and others, the current Xuchang court is full of Cao Cao's people.

Above the entire court, it has basically become a hall of words.

After Cao Cao spoke, although some people didn't know what was going on, everyone followed suit.

At the same time, Liu Xie did not have the slightest opinion on this.

In addition to playing the drama as the pastor of Xuzhou, Cao Cao then asked for an edict from the Son of Heaven, ordering the servants to shoot Pei Mao and lead the generals in Guanzhong to crusade against Li Dao.

Then he spoke out again and sent Zhong Miao to Guanzhong to garrison Chang'an to assist Pei Mao and guard against Xiliang, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others.

Throughout the court meeting, Liu Xie nodded almost all the time, and the rest was Cao Cao's constant opening to ask for the edict.

It didn't take long.

By the time the court meeting ended, there was almost a plan for dealing with the things Cao Cao discussed last night.

……

At the same time, Xuzhou Xiapi.

At that time, in the government office, Xi Yu had just received the news of Cao Cao's return to Xuchang.

In this regard, Xi Yu didn't have too many thoughts in his heart.

Come to think of it, the letter he left for Cao Cao, the other party should have seen it.

Everything that should be said has been said, and the rest depends on what Lao Cao thinks.
