Chapter 10, Burn Yourself!
PS: Ladies and gentlemen, this chapter is 5,000 words!
"Red Rabbit! This is the legendary innate god horse Red Rabbit Horse!"
"'Lu Bu among people, red rabbit among horses!' Lu Bu is the number one martial arts master in the world, and his horse is also extraordinary, comparable to the ancient immortal beast!"
"I have heard that General Xiahoudun, General Xiahouyuan, General Cao Chun and others have asked Sikong for the Red Rabbit Horse several times, but all of them have been rejected by Sikong. I thought it was Sikong left and I took it, but this time, I am afraid that it isγγγγγγ β
"Shh
A cadre of civil and military generals did not dare to make a loud noise, and whispered below, and a few bold ones even secretly looked at the generals in the front, but saw that their faces were like sinking water, and their faces were pale.
The eight attendants pulled the Red Rabbit Divine Horse out of the stable with great difficulty, and after wasting all their strength, they were all sweating profusely, sweating profusely, and they did not dare to let out the atmosphere; only after paying Cao Cao's life did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"Roar!"
The red rabbit screamed, like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, shaking thousands of fields, and his sharp eyes were like raging flames, spewing up, glaring at Cao Cao angrily, unruly.
It opened its mouth, and a strong wind rushed up, and the red rabbit divine horse actually bit towards Cao Cao, and its white teeth shone in the sun, like a knife, sharp and unparalleled, cutting everything.
"Evil beasts, dare to be presumptuous!"
Cao Cao was not in a hurry, snorted coldly, and a cloud of black gas rose from the Red Rabbit Divine Horse, and the black chains were like giant nets, suppressing the Red Rabbit Divine Horse with a devastating momentum.
"Boom!"
The red rabbit fell down all at once, struggling to get up, staggering, and there was a hint of human jealousy in its flame-like eyes, and it let out a low roar and fell silent.
"Whether it is a bird or a beast, as long as it reaches the innate realm, spirituality will be born and spiritual wisdom will be awakened. Li Lin looked at the red rabbit horse who kept roaring with his head down, and a ray of realization flashed in his calm and calm eyes.
"And the birth of spirituality, the awakened wisdom of the red rabbit horse no longer has the fearlessness of the past, replaced by the same as the human to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Of course, this is not absolute, perhaps, the previous Chitu wanted to follow Lu Bu, but now the Chitu who has fear in his heart will not. β
"Wait!"
A loud shout woke Li Lin up from his thoughts, and he looked at the person, this is a big man with a height of eight feet, and the muscles on his body are like peaks, which makes people know at a glance that he is a fierce general!
"Do you have any objections?" Cao Cao's eyes glanced at the big man, and then he was silent, looking at Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan and the others who were outside the world, and a trace of inexplicable meaning flashed in his eyes.
At this glance, the ancient well had no waves, but it made the big man fall into an ice cave, a stream of cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to his back, and his body shook slightly, as if he was about to fall.
As soon as he bit the tip of his tongue, a fishy smell filled his mind, threw out the fear and cowardice in his heart, stood with his fists clenched, and said solemnly, "The last general, Captain Zhang Lie of Weibei, greets Sikong!"
Just when Li Lin was thinking deeply, Cao Cao promised on the spot, waved his hand, and gave the Red Rabbit Divine Horse to Guan Yu.
Maybe this was just Cao Cao's casual question, but he never thought that someone really raised an objection.
"Then what objections do you have?" Cao Cao's eyes were cold, and he looked at Zhang Lie quietly.
The ministers were silent, for fear of angering Cao Cao, and the huge Sikong Mansion could be heard for a while, and it was extremely quiet.
"Hiccup! hahaha! fun, fun!"
A loud laugh spread throughout the Prime Minister's Mansion and beyond, and everyone was horrified, and when they looked up, it turned out to be Zhang Fei looking up and laughing.
Zhang Fei was not afraid of heaven and earth, but when he saw something that could meet Cao Cao, he immediately burped and laughed.
"Sikongγγγγγγ! When Guan Yu saw Cao Cao's eyes narrow, he secretly screamed that it was not good, and immediately spoke.
"Say no more. Cao Cao had long heard about Zhang Fei's nonsense in the barracks, and he was very dissatisfied, but because of Guan Yu's face, he turned a blind eye for a while.
Now, Zhang Fei has completely lost his face under the eyes of the ministers, and Cao Cao naturally can't bear it anymore.
However, after all, he is Cao Cao, with a magnificent bearing, although he is very dissatisfied with Zhang Fei, he will not kill him.
"Come on, Zhang Yide is drunk, send him to Hanshou Pavilion to rest!"
"No!" Outside the mansion, two ironclad guards who were at the peak of the day after tomorrow walked in, picked up Zhang Fei and walked out.
"Hiccup, so-and-so is not drunk! so-and-so is not drunk! Noγγγγγγ The voice spread farther and farther, and gradually became inaudible, Guan Yu knew that since Cao Cao said so, he would not pursue it, and immediately said gratefully, "Thank you Sikong!"
Cao Cao nodded, turned to look at Zhang Lie, and asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Lie, if you have any objections now, you can say it." β
"Sikong, the last general has followed since Sikong raised his troops and fought against Dong Thief, charging all the way into battle, bravely killing the enemy, I dare not say how much credit there is, but at least there is hard work. β
"I know you, Zhang Lie, Zhang Ziyong, Chen Liuji, and Zimanai are fellow villagers. β
The coldness of Cao Cao's eyes gradually faded and became softer, and when he said that Zi was full, his eyes were sad and his face was gloomy.
This Ziman is none other than Cao Cao's beloved general Dian Wei.
"I still remember that you had a knife wound in the chest, it was in the second year of Jian'an, when you conquered Wancheng, you and Ziman were injured by Hu Che'er, a general under Zhang Xiu, in order to save me, and almost died. Cao Cao sighed slightly and said, "The death of the son is full of pain, which makes me feel miserable, and I will forget you all these years, I can't stand you." β
"No! Sikong must not be like this! Sikong is as kind to us as a mountain, taking care of our family, and he is not sorry for me!" Zhang Lie suddenly knelt down, kowtowed again and again, and said loudly.
"Since Ben Sikong has no debts, and you have no grievances in your heart, then what objections do you have?!"
At this moment, Cao Cao's tone was cold, and he became a hero again!
"Sikong! A certain objection is not Sikong, but Guan Yu!" Zhang Lie kowtowed again and again, and when he heard Cao Cao's question, his heart trembled, but he still raised his head and said with a resolute face, "The last general waited for nine deaths and killed thousands of enemies before he was promoted to any military academy captain with military merits, Guan Yu is just a general of the defeated army, a general who surrenders, and has no size of merit, why is he a partial general, and he waits for the throne in the pavilion?"
Zhang Lie's roar, like a rainbow, shook the generals, everyone was stunned, and the entire Sikong Mansion shook slightly.
"What about the rest?" Cao Cao glanced down, some playfulness flashed in his eyes, "If there are dissenters, stand up, this Sikong will definitely not blame you!"
The generals looked at each other, very hesitant, and a little hesitant.
Several Wenchen had their own thoughts, Guo Jia shook his head, the glass of wine in his hand did not stop, and Xun Yu opened his mouth, but in the end he still did not speak.
Guan Yu closed his eyes and recuperated, turning a deaf ear to Zhang Lie's questioning, for him, except for Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, the rest were all false.
"Yesterday Colliers brought me a message, and I felt that something was going to happen at today's banquet. Right now...... And so it was. Li Lin quietly glanced at Cao Cao, who was expressionless, and doubts gradually grew, "It's just that I don't know if Cao Cao deliberately let this happen, or let the generals vent their dissatisfaction in their hearts?"
Cao Cao should have been aware of this matter a long time ago, one is to let the generals vent, and the other is to beat Guan Yu; although Cao Cao is generous, he is also a male lord after all. β
Li Lin wanted to understand this, let out a long breath, let go of the worries in his heart, and silently observed the situation in the field.
"Prime Minister, what Captain Zhang Lie said is right, the last general is not convinced!" At this moment, Gao Li stood up suddenly, and shouted loudly, "What Guan Yu? It seems that he has been dragging 2580,000 yuan all day long, as if everyone owes him money?
"it!" As soon as Gao Li spoke, Li Lin was not calm all of a sudden, "Gao Li, Gao Li, you shouldn't have done it on purpose." β
Zhang Lienai is the captain of Weibei, who is his top boss, and Gao Li is the commander of his command, if this matter has nothing to do with him, no one will believe it.
Maybe Li Lin is not the mastermind of this matter, but at least one person who knows about it and doesn't report it can't run.
"Lao Tzu has come and gone in the water for the prime minister, dozens of battles, so far it is only a small tun chief; β
"Is it because your eldest brother Liu Bei is His Majesty's imperial uncle? Okay, take a step back and say, who knows whether this imperial uncle is true or false, the emperor's relatives in the world have gone to the sea, and he is just Liu Bei, and he dares to deceive and γγγγγγ β
"Presumptuous!"
Guan Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze was like a knife, shooting directly into Gao Li's heart; Gao Li was stunned, his eyes rolled and his whole body trembled, and a mouthful of white foam poured out of his mouth.
"Guan Yu, you are so bold!"
Things have developed to such a point, Li Lin can no longer sit idly by, Gao Li is his commander after all.
He got up suddenly, stepped forward, and blocked Gao Li's body, a congenital aura rose, and a phantom spear rushed up, shattering Guan Yu's sword.
"Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, partial general, Hanshou Pavilion waiting!" Li Lin's voice came out word by word, resounding in the main hall, shaking the tables and chairs in the hall constantly.
"This is Sikong Mansion, Sikong has nothing, why do you do it?!" Although Li Lin admired Guan Yu, his eyes were still sharp and cold at the moment, competing with Guan Yu without giving in, "You are a guest, you should have the appearance of a guest, and you should not be anti-guest-oriented!"
When Guan Yu heard this, his face sank, red as a heavy jujube, his phoenix eyes widened, and he snorted softly, like a dragon roaring, "He said that it is okay, but it is absolutely not okay to slander a certain big brother!"
"It's just a fact, how can it be regarded as slander?" Li Lin's words were not hurried, he glanced at the main hall, and said, "Everyone here knows that Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, accepted concubines and gave birth to more than 120 children, and the descendants of future generations do not know how many. Although Liu Bei's surname is Liu, and he claims to be the successor, what evidence does he have? Could it be that as long as his surname is Liu, he is His Majesty's imperial uncle?"
"A certain eldest brother Liu Bei is incomparably virtuous, and the world calls him virtuous, and even His Majesty personally recognizes his status as an imperial uncle. You don't hesitate to question Your Majesty, but you want to slander him like this, what is your intention?" Guan Yu stroked his long beard, his eyebrows were horizontal, and the sword qi came out of his body, and he slashed straight away, "If you don't say why, I won't break with you!"
"If you are not willing to give up, you and I will not be able to give up!" Li Lin did not show weakness, and the blood lingered around his body, turning into a blood-colored spear, tearing through the void and leaving.
"Stop it all!"
A figure overturned the table, soared up, and each of his left and right hands slashed out a flash of divine light, shattering the sword qi and blood spear, shouting angrily at Li Lin, and said, "General Guan is His Majesty's personal seal, and his dignity is incomparable, how can you collide with him?" Fortunately, General Guan is generous, and he doesn't care about you, and he doesn't retreat!"
It seems that they are speaking for Li Lin and them, but in fact, they are helping Guan Yu, once Li Lin, Zhang Lie and others retreat, the matter will be over, but Guan Yu's power will be prosperous day by day, as long as he does not anger Cao Cao in the future, even Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Chun will have to retreat by three points.
This is not Li Lin alone fighting against Guan Yu, but the entire Cao Cao's cronies and generals are fighting against him.
"General Zhang Liao, is this speaking for Guan Yu?" Li Lin saw clearly that it was Zhang Liao, who was the head of the five good generals in later generations.
"Uh......" Zhang Liao was speechless for a while, he was good friends with Guan Yu, and he was also a general, he had to help Guan Yu speak in public and private, but how could he admit it in public?
Li Lin took the time to glance at Cao Cao, only to see Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was asleep, and his heart suddenly settled.
"General Zhang Liao, although you are a general, your martial arts cultivation is unfathomable, the art of war is strategic, and you are even more loyal to the prime minister, and the last general is naturally admired. Li Lin said sincerely, "But what about Guan Yu? However, a member of the general, who has no size merit, can occupy the position of a general and worship the pavilion; on the other hand, even if we fight bravely for Your Majesty to kill the enemy and put down the thieves, we are still not as good as Guan Yu, who has no merits, how can this be convincing?!"
"General Guan was not useless to the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was γγγγγγ Later, the princes discussed Dong γγγγγγ and so on... Vigorously. Zhang Liao was very embarrassed in his heart, glanced at Guan Yu resentfully, but continued to argue for him.
"General Zhang Liao, Guan Yu's merits in pacifying the Yellow Turban Thieves have already been decided, how can one merit be two?" Li Lin frowned when he saw that Zhang Liao still did not retreat, and was about to refute, but found that General Xiahoudun sneered and spoke.
"General Xiahou, what kind of mess are you making? Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help complaining secretly, "Well, this is γγγγγγ β
When Zhang Liao saw Xiahoudun looking at Guan Yu's eyes as cold as snow, he suddenly realized.
"General Zhang Liao, it's not that we are going to oppose you, it's just that this Guan Yu is too deceitful. You went to the barracks to inquire, and how many soldiers complainedγγγγγγ General Cao Chun spat out bitterness and spoke.
"We also believe that what happened in the camp must have nothing to do with General Guan, but some people may not. The other general spoke more tactfully.
Many generals stepped forward one after another, all of them were excusing Guan Yu on the surface, but at a deeper level, they did not hide their envy, admiration, jealousy, jealousy, and hatred for Guan Yu!
At this moment, not only Zhang Liao was stunned, but even Cao Cao changed color slightly, the wine glass in his hand stopped turning, and his eyes were slightly cold.
Cao Cao regardless of the previous suspicions, enveloped Guan Yu, and rewarded him even more, although he had his love for Guan Yu, but it was more to stabilize people's hearts and maintain internal unity.
Of course, Cao Cao also knew that his treatment of Guan Yu so well would cause dissatisfaction among Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Chun and other cronies, but he could set a benchmark for middle- and lower-level officers from civilians.
Thousands of dollars buy horse bones, build a golden platform, the same thing!
Historically, Cao Cao's move has been a great success. It's a pity that Cao Cao calculated everything and everything, but he missed one person - Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide!
Because of the resentment against Cao Cao, because of the dissatisfaction with Guan Yu's surrender to Cao Cao, because of the γγγγγγ For various reasons, the more Guan Yu asked him not to provoke right and wrong, he insisted on doing the opposite, and it was best to provoke Cao Cao and behead him.
Moreover, because the importance of the army to Cao Cao is self-evident, Zhang Fei directly aimed his eyes on Cao Jun; after three days of searching for trouble, although the cultivation was sealed, the realm was still there, and with the strength of his body, he beat most of the captains of Cao Ying and below to a whimper, and that was called a whimper.
Cao Cao naturally knew about this, but he didn't take it to heart.
If it weren't for Cao Cao's whim today, who wanted to test how much dissatisfaction the generals had, and casually asked, "What are the objections?", I'm afraid that he would still be blinded by appearances.
Cao Cao raised his head, ready to discuss with the strategist, but saw that Guo Jiameng was drunk, and he was still holding a wine glass in his hand, muttering in his mouth, "Horse, horse, come, come and drink with me, have a drink!" Horse, horse, don't, don't go! Here, there is γγγγγγ Hey...... β
"This drunkard, hey!" Cao Cao shook his head, sighed helplessly, and was about to ask Xun Yu and Cheng Yu for advice, but suddenly, his eyes swept over the red rabbit horse, "Horse, horse, what a horse!"
"This is a godsend for me!"
Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia, who was drunk and crazy, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but when he turned back to the hall and looked at the quarreling generals, his face turned cold, "Okay!"
"The position of Marquis of Yun Chang was given by His Majesty, so don't discuss it anymore. Cao Cao looked at the quiet hall, bowed slightly, and continued, "As for the Red Rabbit Divine Horseγγγγγγ β
Cao Cao paused, and immediately dozens of fiery eyes surged towards him, needless to say, there must be Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan and others, but in addition, there was even Guan Yu.
You must know that since Guan Yu took refuge, Cao Cao has sent gold, silver, jewelry, beauties, and beauties, but he has not been moved at all, how can this not make him depressed.
But now, Cao Cao actually saw that Guan Yu was so moved, if it wasn't for the fact that giving him the Red Rabbit Divine Horse would attract the dissatisfaction of the generals, he would definitely not say a word and give it to him directly.
In exchange for a mere divine horse for a general with unfathomable martial arts, Cao Cao has always thought that it is worth it.
"Three days later, the martial arts competition will be held, and the winner will get the red rabbit!"
Throwing down this sentence, Cao Cao waved his sleeves, got up directly, and walked to the back house of Sikong Mansion, regardless of what everyone thought.
