Chapter 44 Hold still, don't float
"Heaven did not give birth to me, Guo Fengxiao, seeking the way through the ages is like a long night!"
Guo Jia's heroic voice seemed to be still reverberating over the General's Mansion, but in fact he was already drunk, and turned into a puddle of drunken mud.
Cao Cao asked someone to send Guo Jia back to the room where he was leaked out before.
I ordered a bowl of hangover soup, sat at the table and read today's diary.
[The success for a long time has made me feel a little drifting without knowing it...Fortunately, there are a group of people around me who are willing to remind me. 】
"Hey! You, Daxian Lu, sometimes get flustered? You were tricked by someone? Hahaha!"
At the beginning, Cao Cao was pleasantly surprised. When Cao Cao saw that Lu Yan was cheated because of his carelessness, he immediately burst out laughing.
It seems that he is very happy to see Lu Yan being deflated, which is a bit mean!
【Boss Cao must have embarked on the path of arrogance and paranoia like this.
It's a pity that Feng Xiao was gone at that time, and no one could wake up the arrogant Boss Cao anymore. 】
Cao Cao's laughter stopped abruptly, and the expression on his face became extremely solemn in an instant.
"I...arrogant and paranoid?" Cao Cao couldn't help but reflect on his recent mental and psychological state, "It seems that I have really gotten carried away recently."
Seeing the latter sentence "Feng Xiao is gone", Cao Cao felt a pain in his heart, and said to himself, "Did he leave or passed away?"
Judging from Guo Jia's current relationship with him, Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia would most likely not abandon him.
Then in the end there is only one answer, which is "Feng Xiaohui died young!"
Cao Cao's heart trembled again, and then he couldn't help recalling the scene of drinking with Guo Jia before,
"Mr. Lu has been restricting Guo Jia's drinking, probably to protect his body and prevent his premature death... However, what did I do with him? Staying up late? Drinking alcohol? Listening to music? Absurd!!"
After Cao Cao reflected for a while, he immediately regretted his actions...
Although Guo Jia is much younger than Cao Cao, his personality is very suitable for Cao Cao.
Rather than saying that they are the relationship between the lord and his subordinates, it is more appropriate to say that they are the relationship between close friends.
Naturally, Cao Cao didn't want Guo Jiaying to die young. His hegemony and ambition required Guo Jia to advise him.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't sit still anymore.
He got up and went outside the house, shouting loudly: "Come on!"
A servant immediately came to Cao Cao, bowed and said, "What is the general's order?"
"Go and send Guo Jijiu back to Chen Liu, and send it to General Hushi's residence."
"Here!"
"Also, tell the people in General Hussar's mansion that after Guo Ji sobers up, he will be banned from drinking for three months!"
"Ah...I understand..."
"Go."
"Retire."
"You guys were so excited just now, why did you turn your back on you now?" The servant retreated full of confusion, shaking his head constantly, lamenting the general's moodiness...
Cao Cao watched his servants retreat, and his extremely guilty mood was relieved a little.
Back in the house, Cao Cao picked up the diary again and read down.
[Yes, I think I should understand Guo Jia's plan.Bind Lu Lingqi to our battleship, and Lu Bu has become our potential ally...]
"What is a battleship?" Cao Cao chewed the word, he was used to the new words that Lu Yan popped up from time to time, but he still couldn't help but want to guess their meaning, "It may be some kind of battleship car?"
"It turned out to be Feng Xiao's plan, but you actually cheated Lu Yan by practicing your hands. I have to say... well done!!!" Boss Cao had a smirk, as if a pair of horns were protruding from his forehead.
"It's not a bad idea to take back Lu Lingqi, but without a formal appointment, it's still a bit meaningless after all."
Cao Cao pondered Guo Jia's intentions, and he felt that he should be able to push forward on this matter.
"Tomorrow, I will go up to court and ask the emperor to give Lu Lingqi an official position. This is equivalent to wooing his former benefactor Lu Bu in disguise. I think the emperor should be very willing."
Thinking of this, Cao Cao suddenly showed a meaningful smile: "It's just unexpected, is Mr. Lu's charm really so great that the enemy can take it all?"
Cao Cao was looking forward to it, and then suddenly the words written in Lu Yan's diary appeared in his mind, "No one urged to change, no one urged to marry..."
A bold idea popped up in Cao Cao's mind, "How about...I give him a push in this matter too?"
"Marquis Wen's daughter, should she be worthy of Lu Yan?!" As soon as the idea came up, Cao Cao quickly suppressed it, "No, if one of them doesn't want to, then wouldn't it be my fault? Xiao's clever plan? Wait, find a chance to try it out..."
Continuing to look down, Cao Cao found that Lu Yan spent a lot of words to reflect and warn himself, "As expected of a man who wants to become a fairy, such introspection and self-discipline... Sigh, I have to learn from Mr. Lu!"
"But who is Zhuge? Zhuge should be his surname. If he has been too cautious all his life, what great things can he do?" Shaking his head, Cao Cao continued to look back.
The following are almost some of Lu Yan's experience and self-reflection, as well as what kind of mentality he should maintain in the future. Cao Cao finished today's reading after browsing through it roughly.
After reading, Cao Cao closed the diary.
"We should be cautious, but we can't be too cautious." Cao Cao still disagrees with Lu Yan's highly cautious attitude.
Cao Cao believes that people should not be too cowardly, and sometimes they should be reckless when they should be reckless!
This was the case when he assassinated Dong alone, and it was the same when he chased and killed Dong Zhuo at Hulao Pass, and it was even more so when Dongjun broke the Yellow Turban and defeated the Xiongnu.
Cao Cao felt that there was nothing wrong with Lu Yan's self-examination, but he couldn't become cautious because he was afraid of making mistakes. "When it's time to make a move, you have to make a move. If you are too cautious, you will not be able to go too far."
"Emmm...I'd better find an opportunity to remind Mr. Lu in a subtle way, I finally pushed him to the front desk, but I can't shrink back because I'm too cautious."
Today's diary recorded many of Lu Yan's psychological feelings and reflections, and Cao Cao also gained a lot from Lu Yan's psychological journey.
Lu Yan's introspection sounded a wake-up call to Cao Cao, "No matter what, it is necessary to remain humble and cautious. Paranoia and arrogance are absolutely unacceptable! Cao Mengde, Mr. Lu's teachings must be kept in mind!"
......
The next day, Guo Jia woke up in a daze.
It took several times for the hazy vision to focus successfully,
When he saw the scene in front of him clearly,
He rubbed his painful head, and said to himself in great confusion: "I...how could I be in my own home?"
After getting dressed with difficulty, Guo Jia opened the door and walked out of the room.
"Guo Jijiu, Lingqi has been waiting for a long time!" Lu Lingqi's voice suddenly came.
Guo Jia was stunned, and it took two or three seconds for him to react, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Lu Lingqi grinned, then raised her sleeves to reveal a small portion of her white arm, and replied, "Come to complete the task assigned by the master!"
"???"
Chapter 45 Life in due time will surely help China
Cao Cao got up early and made preparations. He has many important matters to discuss with the emperor's ministers at today's court meeting. "After two or three years of training in Yanzhou, the soldiers are now well-equipped with food and food. It's time to make a move!"
That's right, with the prestige of the emperor, Cao Cao is going to attack the surrounding princes.
"Da da... da da..." The horse pulled the carriage at a moderate speed, and the horse's hooves collided with the bluestone board, making a rhythmic and crisp sound.
Not far away is the Qiuxian Hall, which is a must-have in every county.
The former Qiuxian Hall was relatively small and old, but after so many years of expansion and renovation, it seems no worse than some luxurious inns.
Most of the talents who come here after hearing the news will live in the Qiuxian Pavilion. This is the facade, and the facade should naturally be decorated to perfection.
Outside the Qiuxian Pavilion, there seemed to be a vague figure waiting eagerly.
When he saw Cao Cao's carriage, this figure, that is, Guan Cheng of the Qiuxian Pavilion, rushed out from the gate of the Qiuxian Pavilion immediately!
In just a few dozen steps, he was sweating profusely from running...
While running towards the carriage, Guan Cheng shouted loudly: "General! Please wait a moment, general, the subordinates have something important to report!"
Cao Cao opened the curtains and saw that the other party was the Guan Cheng of Qiuxian Hall, so he stopped the carriage.
When Guan Cheng ran to the side of the carriage, Cao Cao lifted the curtain and asked, "Tell me, what do you have to report?"
While wiping the sweat from his brow, Guan Cheng stepped forward a few steps and came to the window of the carriage.
He first bowed his hands and saluted, and then he said: "General, a few days ago, many famous people suddenly came to the Qiuxian Hall and the Post Hall, and my subordinates...I can't restrain them, I just I can report directly to you!"
According to the normal process, the people in the Qiuxian hall will naturally be received by special officials.
When the receptionist asks clearly about the official position he wants to seek and what he is good at, then the corresponding personnel will come to the assessment, that is, the interview. In the end, only those who pass the interview can formally enter the Cao's camp.
There is no other way, there are too many people who want to dawdle, if they don’t refuse, it’s not seeking talents but helping the poor...
Cao Cao was still a little dazed for a while when he heard Guan Cheng say that many celebrities had come to the Qiuxian Hall and the post station.
"Celebrities?" At the beginning when Cao Cao begged his grandpa to tell his grandma, no celebrities were willing to ignore him (except Xun Yu), why did he suddenly come now, and so many came?
Cao Cao suddenly became curious, and asked casually, "Who are there?"
Guan Cheng took out the roster and said: "The subordinates have made statistics. Among the famous scholars in Yingchuan alone, there are Zhong Yao, Du Xi, Zhao Yan, etc., as well as Jingzhou, Yanzhou, etc...
On the other side of the post house, there is also a righteous man who led a group of people from other places to come to serve, Li Tong. "
Li Tong's name, Cao Cao, has never been heard before.
But the above list of Yingchuan celebrities really surprised Lao Cao, "Zhong Yao, Du Xi, Zhao Yan?!"
These are all famous people who moved from Yingchuan to Jingzhou and other places to seek refuge. Cao Cao wrote to invite them before, but without exception, all of his letters fell to nothing.
They are all well-known and well-known figures in Yingchuan. If they can get their votes, Cao Cao's own reputation will also rise steadily!What's more, there are other celebrities with less famous reputations.
Cao Cao was so excited that he didn't know what expression to show.
Seeing that the general hadn't said a word for a long time, Guan Cheng secretly raised his head and took a look, only to find that the general was in a daze and kept muttering: "This is the greatest benefit of welcoming the emperor that Mr. Lu said! I, Cao Cao, It's really going to take off for the second time!"
But Cao Cao still has self-knowledge.
He knew that almost all these celebrities and talents came for the name of the emperor instead of himself, but Cao Cao had absolute confidence that he would be able to subdue them all one by one in the future.
With the help of these celebrities and talents, Cao Cao suddenly felt that his future was bright!
In this era, celebrities may not necessarily be talents, but their reputation itself is a kind of capital.
Cao Cao also didn't have the kind of vengeful mentality of "you didn't answer me at the beginning, but now I want you to be too high." He wished for more celebrities, which would be of great benefit to him in winning people's hearts and stabilizing the ruling and opposition parties.
"General? General?!" Guan Cheng's call made Cao Cao sober.
Although I really want to visit this group of celebrities now, I still have to go in the morning court today, otherwise I will end up with the reputation of disrespecting the emperor, and I may be punished by these celebrities again.
Cao Cao could only suppress his excitement, and said to Guan Cheng: "Go and get Lu... go and call Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Dong Zhao and others to suppress the place. It is better for them to come forward to deal with those celebrities."
This guy Lu Yan has always been displeased with the big family, and secretly prepared a series of tricks to trick the family. He asked him to greet the children of the family. If there was a conflict accidentally, Cao Cao was afraid that they would all be beaten to death by Lu Yan. ...
After receiving Cao Cao's order, Guan Cheng saluted and left.
Seeing the back of Guan Cheng Pi Dian Pi Dian leaving, Cao Cao couldn't help feeling a little complacent.
The news of the return of the emperor to the east and the relocation of the capital to Xuchang has just spread throughout the world, and there must be many people who are still waiting to see.
If people all over the world know that there are so many celebrities coming to serve him, then there will definitely be more talents in the future, and even a steady stream of talents will come!
"That's right! There have been so many famous and talented people who have just started to vote, so there may be more talents coming in the future!"
"Hehe, I have to hold back... This is just the beginning!" Hold on, but Lao Cao can't help it now, and he's already a little drifting...
The more Cao Cao thought about it, the happier he became, and the more excited he became, but just when he was about to get carried away, the contents of Lu Yan's diary last night suddenly flashed into Cao Cao's mind.
"Slap!" Cao Cao woke up instantly, then raised his hand and slapped himself, "The experience of Mr. Lu is still vivid in my mind, how can I get carried away?
Cao Mengde, you have to be steady, don't drift away!
Mr. Lu's teachings should always be kept firmly in mind! "
As soon as he thought of Lu Yan, Cao Cao's arrogance completely dissipated, "Even people who want to become immortals are always alert to themselves. I am just a general in the world, so what is there to be proud of?"
At this time, Cao Cao recalled how Lu Yan had supported him to serve the Emperor as a way to disobey his ministers. He couldn't help muttering: "Welcoming the Emperor is indeed the most important turning point in my life. Fortunately, I believe in Mr. Lu, as long as Mr. Lu is around, I will be able to go on steadily!"
After being stunned for a while, Guan Cheng's back has disappeared.
Cao Cao then put down the curtain with a smile on his lips, and said to the groom: "Let's go, hurry up to the county government office!"
"drive!"
"take off!"
