Chapter 83

.According to Liu Biao and Ma Teng, Cao Cao's intention is to play the role of shaking mountains and shaking tigers, and not force them too hard. Although it sounds more difficult, it is still difficult for Cheng Yu and Jia Xu. Soon, the two of them said one by one, and soon sorted out a set of plans to use both kindness and power.

At this time, I was thinking hard about how to deal with the provocations from Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others.

Yes! I am sure this is a provocation and a demonstration. It also indicates that the last generation of supporters in the history of the Han Dynasty will soon be on the stage of fighting for the world. They are the last guardian force that grew up under the emperor's grace and dew of the Han Dynasty. They used a method beyond people's imagination to show the concept of human hearts in the Han Dynasty to those of us rebel ministers represented by Cao Cao. The world is turbulent and people are determined. They understand the concept of stability from their own perspective. I can understand that they yearn for the glory of Emperor Wu of Han and the glory of Emperor Guangwu. Unfortunately, although they are extremely talented, they did not realize that the backward political system can no longer adapt to the requirements of the development of productivity, and the political system that the Han Dynasty has inherited for hundreds of years is no longer applicable to and used to manage the people who have lived and reproduced on this land.

It is said that there was a shortage of talents in the late Shu Han Dynasty, but the responsibility for this situation was not that Zhuge Liang, who had to take care of everything, but that they followed the system of the Han Dynasty without any hesitation. When Cao Cao adhered to the idea of ​​being talented and promoting, the talents of Cao Wei emerged like mushrooms after a rain, Shu Han was still struggling to follow the filial and honest system while lamenting the rare talent. Looking at the civil and military officials of Shu Han, almost every one of them had a prominent background except Zhao Yun and Wei Yan. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were when Liu Bei had no power or power.

The support of the family is not listed here. Even so, Zhang Fei is still the son-in-law of the Xiahou family, which is considered to be related to the famous family. Jiang Wei's ability to become Zhuge Liang's relatives is not only an extraordinary talent, but also has a lot to do with the Jiang family being a great clan of the Xiliang family. He has been an official for several generations (although not a high-ranking official). In this context, Zhao Zilong, who is brave, can only play the role of protecting his family; Wei Yan, who has great military achievements, will die without a burial place; and the calm Wang Ping can only serve as Ma Su's deputy to guard Jieting.

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that even if Zhuge Liang had the ability to be in the sky and Pang Shiyuan had the power to turn the world around, under the constraints of backward systems, even if they could help Liu Bei achieve temporary victory! What's more, as long as Cao Cao won the Battle of Chibi, it would be no longer just a dream to end this troubled time early! And Xu Shu had his mother's fatal weakness, and it would be too sorry for me if he didn't use it for a while; as for Pang Tong... he was coming to offer a series of plans? Don't think about leaving when he came! And my idol in his previous life - Mr. Wolong! I have now figured out a way to deal with him! After I caught all the three of them, I set up an ideological transformation team and brainwashed it in three or five years. I guess I can still contribute two or three decades of youth to the construction of China.

The more I thought about it, the more proud I became, and I couldn't help laughing! As I smiled, I suddenly realized that something was wrong there? When I saw Cao Cao, Cheng Yu and Jia Xu staring at me with six eyes, I realized that this was discussing military and national affairs in the secret room of Sikong Mansion! I habitually slapped the feather fan in my hand, as if I wanted to let the embarrassment go with the wind.

When Cheng Yu stopped laughing, he shook his head and sighed, "I heard that Fengxiao said he was sick today and didn't even attend the celebration banquet for the emperor. I thought he was pretending to be sick, but now I see that he is really sick. Young people should pay more attention to their health!"

Dead old man! It's starting to make a comedy again!

I feel that everything that should be discussed has been discussed, but it is not as relaxed as before after the matter is resolved.

Cao Cao didn't have any thoughts of laughing, he waved his hand and said, "That's it! You guys go back first, I want to be quiet!"

Cheng Yu and Jia Xu both stood up and said goodbye, but I couldn't sit still.

Cao Cao looked at me and asked, "Does Fengxiao have something to say?"

I nodded and said, "Yes, lord, what I want to say is about Wen Ruo!"

"Wen Ruo!" Cao Cao's tone showed a sense of irritability.

I said, "I just thought about it. Based on Jia's opinion and combined Wen and the information collected, what I did for the emperor this time should be the name created by Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and it is definitely not planned by Wen Ruo!"

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said, "I know it was not what Wen Ruo did! But...hey!"

"Is the lord blaming Wen Ruo for not reporting it?"

"Those who know me are filial!" This was not the first time Cao Cao said this, but he did not have the joy of saying this in the past. Cao Cao said depressedly: "After hearing about this, I told myself repeatedly that Wen Ruo did not know in advance, but... but Meng De knew that it was a self-deception! Even Zixiu could find out. Would he not know? Even if the emperor deliberately used the queen's mouth to hide this matter from Wen Ruo through self-study, Wen He had made a clue in less than two hours. Wen Ruo he presided over the overall situation of Xu Du, and was close at hand. Didn't he feel strange about Liu Biao and Ma Teng's abnormal actions? And Wen Ruo saw Cao today and only said ambiguous words. Did he really not find any problem?"

Cao Cao became more and more excited as he spoke. I could clearly see his hands trembling. After Cao Cao finished speaking, I did not lend him what he said immediately, because I knew that Cao Cao knew very well the answers to the questions he asked, but he was just venting the depression that was pressing on his heart.

After Cao Cao's mood calmed down, I coughed and said, "Do you think Wenruo is betraying you?"

Cao Cao nodded with difficulty.

I said solemnly: "My lord is wrong!"

"Is that true?" Cao Cao asked indifferently: "Where is the mistake?"

"The lord is wrong, you forgot! Wen Ruo is the minister of Han first! Secondly, he is the counselor under your tent!" I squinted my eyes and said word by word: "Wen Ruo knew about this matter or not, he did nothing wrong! And he also did his best to convey the news he knew to you!"

Cao Cao was stunned!

I struck while the iron was hot, "Wen Ruo did his duty as a minister of the Han Dynasty and as a counselor under your account. He just did what he thought was right according to his own ideas! Wen Ruo acted well and was worthy of your lord! Do you still think Wen Ruo betrayed you now?"

"Haha! Haha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly and said, "Fengxiao is right! Wen Ruo did what he thought was right according to his ideas! When the emperor used a blood edict to take my life, he thought the emperor was wrong! So he silently supported you and Wenhe to kill the queen and concubine! He burned the father-in-law's family and did not dissuade me from killing Dong Cheng. But..."

Cao Cao stopped his laughter and said, "But what I want is... what I want is. Let him forget that he is a Han minister and is just a counselor of Meng De!"

I said, "This matter is not hopeless! As long as the lord brings Wenruo with him when he goes to Yizhou, let him leave Xudu and stay away from the emperor. He only lets him do what the strategist should do. Maybe there will be a turning point in more than ten years!"

Cao Cao stood up with a frown, walked back and forth in the room for a few trips before saying in a dilemma: "Since you and Wenruo served me, it has become a common practice for you to stay in the fundamentals whenever you have a war service and a filial service, and Wenruo stays at the fundamentals. It can be said that Meng De can achieve what you have achieved today, and you two make great contributions. Wenruo's temperament seems gentle and elegant, but his strength is even more than Tian Feng's. He suddenly changes his convention at this very moment. If there is no convincing reason to convince him... I'm afraid he... Alas! It's difficult!" After saying that, he sat down decadently, giving people a feeling of suddenly getting older.

I have never seen Cao Cao like this. Even after mistakenly taking poison a few years ago, I knew that I could only live for another three or five years, but I was not as depressed as I am today.

When I walked up to Cao Cao, I slowly said, "What if Wen Ruo volunteered?"

His body was shocked, and Cao Cao asked, "What are the good strategies for filial piety? Tell me quickly!"

I smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, lord! Jia has something to ask. Please tell me the truth."

With three points of doubt and seven points of anxiety, Cao Cao said, "What's the matter?"

I chuckled and said, "I heard that my lord had been in Luoyang and had no thoughts about a talented woman. Is this a matter?"

Cao Cao snorted angrily, then nodded vigorously, as if he had answered my question.

Forget it! Don’t tease others! If someone is not good at doing it, it will kill someone! I hurriedly said, “Listen to Xun You, Wen Ruo has been loving this talented woman for a long time. Later, I heard that during the Chang'an Rebellion after Dong Zhuo’s death, this woman was plundered and captured by the riots and soldiers.

A hot flame rose from Cao Cao's eyes. He stared at me tightly and said, "Yes! The talented woman you mentioned is Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong, Gaoyang Marquis. Wen Ji, who is knowledgeable, talented and eloquent, is proficient in music. Only the word "talented woman" says she is too shallow. Alas...!"

"When Wen Ji first married Wei Zhongdao, Hedong, the couple was very affectionate. How many heroes who admired their talents had been sad and crying for him." After sighing, Cao Cao said, "What a pity! The beauty is so miserable! The good times didn't last long. In less than a year, Wei Zhongdao died of hemoptysis. The Wei family could not withstand Wen Ji after Wei Zhongdao's death. If it weren't for this! How could Wen Ji accompany Cai Zhonglang to Chang'an and be plundered by the riots!"

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly lit up! He pointed at my nose and asked, "Fengxiao suddenly mentioned Cai Yan. Could it be that you have her whereabouts?"

He is really a hero who is short of breath and has a long love for his children! I gently waved the feather fan and said, "Go back to the lord! That's what I can say!"

"Where is she?" Cao Cao asked, "Is it in Yizhou?"

"Although it's not in Yizhou, it's not far away." I recalled the memories of my previous life and said: "If Jia's news is not wrong, the current princess of Liu Bao, the Zuoxian King of the Xiongnu in Bingzhou, is Cai Wenji!"

Cao Cao said: "Zuo Xianwang Liu Bao?"

I asked Cao Cao, "Do you remember when you were in Dongjun and Neihuang Da defeated the Heishan Army. The Southern Xiongnu Khanate, which was fighting with us, was in exile in Yu Fuluo, and his troops of the Southern Xiongnu Khanate?"

Cao Cao said: "Remember! What is the relationship between Liu Bao and Yu Fuluo?"

"Liu Bao was the son of Yu Fuluo! Yu Fuluo died shortly after his defeat. His younger brother Hu Chuquan succeeded to become Shanyu, and his son Liu Bao was made the Left King by Hu Chuquan."

Cao Cao rubbed his hands and said, "It's so good! Some people in our dynasty have always been captured by the Huns. As long as they are given gold and silver, they can be exchanged for people! I will send an envoy to bring gold and silver to exchange for Wen Ji!"

I said decisively: "My lord must not!"

Cao Cao said: "Why not?"

"Have you forgotten the "Citizen Order" I had already made earlier?" I said seriously: "According to the Citizen Order, my great man's people are the people of the superiors, and the Huns are the people of the lower people! It is a death sentence for the lower people to plunder the superiors as their wives! Therefore, the lord not only cannot redeem people with gold and silver. He should also kill all the Xiongnu troops when the time is right! Even if the Huns flee thousands of miles away, they must chase and kill at any cost! Until their tribe is destroyed and their species is cut off, they can only stop!"

Cao Cao's eyes flashed a few times and asked, "Didn't Fengxiao never agree with the massacre of innocent civilians? How could he put forward such an opinion?"

I didn't notice that Cao Cao was suspicious. I promoted my own remarks: "The people living in the Central Plains are descendants of Yan and Huang who are connected with the same language and blood, while the Xiongnu on the grassland are evil wolves who covet the plump land of the Central Plains. Now the war in the Central Plains is endless, while the Xiongnu are resting on the grassland. Not only the Xiongnu, but also the Xianbei, Jie, Qiang, and Di. These five tribes are surrendered to the Han Dynasty on the surface, but they often take advantage of the war in the Central Plains to plunder and use our tribe's flesh, money, and children to develop their own strength. If they cannot be wiped out when their wings are not yet abundant, I am afraid that it will not take a hundred years! Our tribe can only cross the south to repay their blood!"

"I suggest that after the destruction of Yuan Shao, the lord will gradually advance northward with the northern prefectures and counties as a support, turn the grassland into our pastures! Turn the evil wolves in the north into fertilizers that nourish the grassland! Then cross the cold ice fields north to reach the extreme north, and cross the desert Gobi west to conquer a wider land than the Central Plains! Thousands of years later! Asia, Africa, and Europe will become a paradise for our descendants!"

"So! I want to ask the lord to take Wen Ruo to go out to fight, and then leave Wen Ruo in Yizhou to preside over the supply of food and supplies for the northern tribes. This not only makes Wen Ruo away from the Han emperor! It also gives him a place to display his talents, even if the lord breaks with the emperor in the future, Wen Ruo will not cause any changes."

Speaking of this, I smiled proudly and said, "As long as Jia tells Wenruo about Cai Yan's whereabouts! I think he will definitely volunteer to ask Shun and his lord to go to Yizhou!"
