"hot pot!"
"Great!"
"Hi'er!" Tieniu heard that he was going to eat hot pot tonight, so he didn't catch up immediately, rolled his eyes, and passed out.
Of course, this was just a joke Lu Yan made with him.
The soldiers must not eat less, at worst, a few more cows will be killed at night...
Tonight, doomed to sleepless again!
evening,
Lu Yan only participated in the very beginning of the banquet. Before the banquet was half over, he left the banquet with too much alcohol and returned to the house alone.
Lu Yan's current status is a bit too high, with him around, the soldiers still can't let go.
Back at General Hussar's Mansion, Lu Yan adjusted his mood and began to write today's diary.
Yuan Shu is no longer worth mentioning... After digesting Xuzhou, Boss Cao, who owns the land of two states and has no shortage of food, will be able to rank among the strongest princes today.
Someone may want to ask, Yuan Shu was defeated so quickly, how could such a guy dare to claim the title of emperor, and why would he dare to claim the title of emperor?
But actually,
Before Yuan Shu killed himself, his strength could be regarded as one of the most powerful forces in the Kanto princes, and he was a proper T0 rank.
A good hand of cards was played poorly, and it was Yuan Shu himself who was talking about it.
A man who proclaimed himself emperor and made himself helpless, to the point of falling apart, really deserves to be called the dead bone in the tomb.
......
There are two flowers on each table.
In addition, after Sun Ce and Liu Bei left Shouchun City, they hurried back to their camps.
On the way back to the camp, Sun Ce, a vulgar man, was keenly aware of an undetectable trace of abnormality in Zhou Yu's expression.
Deliberately slowing down the horse's pace, Sun Ce waited until Zhou Yu caught up, and then asked with concern: "Gong Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Yu was still thinking about something just now, but after being brought back to reality by Sun Ce's greeting at this moment, he shook his head and replied, "It's nothing...just that there are some things I don't quite understand."
"Hey! Is there something else you don't understand?" Sun Ce suddenly became interested and asked curiously, "Tell me, what is it?"
Zhou Yu looked up at the bright smile on Sun Ce's face, and said, "I don't quite understand how Cao Cao got in touch with Lei Bo and cooperated to take down Shouchun City."
"That's it?" Sun Ce suddenly became interested and short of money, and replied, "Isn't it so simple that Lei Bo surrendered to Cao Cao and then opened the city gate?"
Zhou Yu still frowned, and asked, "Ke Bofu, have you thought about it?
Shouchun City implements the poisonous policy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness, not to mention people, I am afraid that even birds cannot come and go freely.
Then how did Cao Cao contact Lei Bo and collude with him to open the city gate at a certain moment? "
"Um... I haven't thought about that." Sun Zhizhi looked a little embarrassed. There are indeed many questions about the details, but he usually doesn't bother to think about it because he can't figure it out...
Seeing that Sun Ce still looked indifferent, Zhou Yu decided to beat him up, "Cao Cao is a man of great power and cunning, you must not underestimate him, Bo Fu!"
"I know...I didn't take him lightly."
"I mean, you have to take him very, very seriously!"
"Understood..."
"It seems you still don't understand."
"..."
"Let me ask you another question." Zhou Yu said.
"You say, I listen..."
"Do you know what Cao Cao's intention behind giving Yuan Shu to us and Liu Bei today?"
When Sun Ce heard this, he immediately calmed down and began to think.
After about ten breaths, he finally opened his mouth and tried to answer: "Cao Cao wants us to compete with Liu Bei and destroy our relationship?"
"It seems that there is no cure." There was a hint of relief in Zhou Yu's smile.
"..."
"But you only talked about one aspect." Zhou Yu couldn't help crying and laughing when he saw Sun Ce looking at him cutely with his eyes open: "On the other hand, Cao Cao used this to send us away. Only we and With Liu Bei gone, he can concentrate on controlling Huainan and Guangling counties."
When Sun Ce heard this, he was surprised and said, "Guangling County? Isn't that Liu Bei's territory?"
"Liu Bei is still a supporter in Xuzhou. Cao Cao will never let Liu Bei stay in Xuzhou. If you don't believe me, you can wait and see if it turns out to be like what I said." Zhou Yu looked confident and let Sun Ce I couldn't help but believe it eight points.
When Sun Ce heard this, he couldn't help becoming worried, and asked, "Cao Cao has so many bad intentions behind his back, so is he also trying to get Jiangdong's attention?"
"Of course he will not let go of every opportunity to seize Jiangdong!"
Zhou Yu's words made Sun Ce visibly nervous.
"It's just that Cao Cao's tentacles can't reach our Jiangdong yet.
And even though the Jiangdong family hates us, they will hate and fear Cao Cao even more..."
Sun Ce nodded, approving Zhou Yu's conjecture,
"I hope Zibu can stabilize the situation in Jiangdong.
As long as we can successfully take Yuan Shu's head this time, the aristocratic families in Jiangdong will be used by us sooner or later! "
Zhou Yu finally relaxed his frown, "That's right, we must take Yuan Shu's head!"
Chapter 136 Prime Minister, Cao Cao
Cao Jun defeated Yuan Shu, not only annexed Xuzhou, but also captured Shouchun, the capital of Yuan Shu's forces. For a while, the world was shaken, and everyone was amazed by Cao Cao's strength and military might!
After defeating the false emperor Yuan, Cao Cao's reputation has been greatly improved.
The specific manifestation is that when Cao Cao led his army back to Xuchang, because of his prestige, the people of Xuchang even made the alleys empty and cheered.
Before Cao Cao, he welcomed the emperor and defeated Xiliang; then he defeated Xuzhou and punished Yuan Shu. His actions can be regarded as a model of political correctness.
Therefore, at today's court meeting, there was Yilang who stood up first and reported to Emperor Liu Xiezuo:
"Your Majesty, Cao Taiwei defeated the Xiliang Army earlier and restored the Qingming of the Great Han Dynasty; now he defeated the false emperor Yuan Shu, wiped out the world, and restored the world to be bright and bright!
Therefore, I implore your Majesty to reward Taiwei for his achievements, so as to show the kindness and power of my great man! "
When Liu Xie heard the words, he couldn't help but nodded slightly in agreement.
He is very clear about what Cao Cao did, and he agrees with it very much: whether it is defeating the Xiliang army in the west, or conquering Cao Bao and Yuan Shu in the east, Cao Cao is indeed sweeping away the rebellion for the big man.
Thinking of this, Liu Xie straightened his voice and said, "Aiqing's words are very much in line with my wishes. Gentlemen, how do you think the Taiwei should be rewarded this time?"
Liu Xie actually had a reward plan for Cao Cao in his heart, but he didn't know if Cao Cao would be satisfied, so he couldn't say it directly by himself.
Let the group of ministers put forward a plan first, even if Cao Cao is not satisfied, there is at least room for mediation.
Following Liu Xie's questioning, another official stepped forward as expected.
Liu Xie took a look, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling a little bad!
It turned out that that person was a loyal fan of Cao Cao, the great Confucian Kong Rong who wrote two poems praising Cao Cao!
I saw Kong Rong cupped his hands and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty has learned from you.
The Taiwei defeated the false emperor Yuan Shu, and returned the great man to the universe, with great achievements!
The minister thinks that Cao Taiwei can be the prime minister and take charge of major affairs in the court, hoping to suppress all the princes who have evil intentions for the court! "
"Prime Minister?!!" Liu Xie was stunned!
Now when he heard the word prime minister, he felt apprehensive from the bottom of his heart, because Dong Zhuo and Li Jue had both sat in this position before!
The prime minister, in Liu Xie's heart, is equivalent to a powerful minister!
Hearing that Kong Rong proposed to make Cao Cao the prime minister, Liu Xie's face suddenly turned pale.
Liu Xie really didn't want another Dong Zhuo or Li Jue to appear in this court.
Now he is thinking all the time to get back his right as the emperor, how can he watch another prime minister with power emerge?
There was a deathly silence in the hall, and the ministers even deliberately relaxed their breathing.
Liu Xie's eyes wandered back and forth among the officials, and he was looking forward to someone who could stand up to refute Kong Rong's proposal at this time and restore the last dignity for him, the emperor.
But to Liu Xie's great disappointment, no one in the huge court dared to stand up to support him as the emperor.
What's ridiculous is that not only did no one stand up to support him, but some ministers came forward to echo Kong Rong's proposal, "Your Majesty! I also think that the Taiwei is loyal to His Majesty and has made great achievements in battle! Being the prime minister, it is a real challenge." It deserves its name!"
The appearance of this brother was like opening Pandora's box, causing more and more people to stand up.
"The minister seconded the proposal! Today, the world is in turmoil, bandits and bandits are rampant, and the princes are rising together.
Your Majesty and the big man just need a minister like the Taiwei who can rule the world to help this building that is about to collapse! "
"My minister agrees!"
"The minister also agrees!"
There are more and more people who stand up, and the frequency is getting faster and faster.
In the end, more than half of the people in the entire court stood up and expressed their approval of Kong Rong's proposal.
Liu Xie's chest was filled with anger, but he could only endure it, so that his body began to tremble slightly.
"Where's Dong Cheng? Where's Yang Biao?" Liu Xie looked around, but didn't see any of them...
It seems that this matter cannot be improved today.
Facing the turbulent ministers alone, Liu Xie felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
"This is to drive away the hungry wolf, and the fierce tiger is coming again! Cao Cao's power has penetrated to such a point...It's sad, it's a pity!"
After a long time, Liu Xie finally chose to compromise in the isolated and helpless situation.What if you don't compromise, turn your face?Apart from the possibility of dying more happily, there is probably no other benefit.
Casting a glance at Cao Cao, who was standing at the head of the civil servants, closing his eyes and meditating as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him, Liu Xie finally said: "According to Kong Aiqing's suggestion, Taiwei Cao Cao was made prime minister and bestowed upon him as county marquis!"
The emperor finally compromised, and all the ministers who secretly voted or were planning to vote for Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty is wise!"
prime minister!Cao Cao finally obtained the absolute power above the court, and stood in the position where one person is below one person and above ten thousand!
Now that the emperor compromised, Cao Cao didn't want to make people too uncomfortable.
So Cao Cao finally opened his eyes, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift!"
Liu Xie lowered his head slightly, waved his hands and said, "I'm a little tired..." Now he really doesn't want to see Lao Cao's hateful face again.
But Cao Cao didn't care at all. He still maintained his perfect posture and said loudly, "Your Majesty! Under Sima Lang's governance, Henan Yin's vitality is gradually recovering. I feel that in the spring of next year, we may be able to recruit civilian husbands to rebuild Luoyang City!"
Liu Xie's eyes widened suddenly, he stared at Cao Cao, his lips trembling slightly, "Madam Cao... Seriously what Prime Minister Cao said?"
"really!"
"Okay! All matters here are decided by the prime minister!"
"Here!"
Liu Xie has a very deep obsession with Luoyang, otherwise he wouldn't go straight to Luoyang, which has become ruins, without going anywhere after escaping from Chang'an.
Cao Cao won the position of prime minister. In order to comfort Liu Xie, he took the initiative to rebuild Luoyang to calm his resentment or fear in his heart.
The end result is not bad.
The ministers were very pleased with Cao Cao's approach. If Cao Cao kept pressing the emperor and sympathized with the weak, maybe some ministers would stand up and help the emperor stand on the platform.
But Cao Cao accepted it as soon as he saw it, and used the reconstruction of Luoyang to appease the emperor's resentment. Such a method made the ministers admire.
In the mansion of General Hussars,
Lu Yan, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai are drinking together to reminisce about the past.
At this time, Xia Houlan told them the news that Cao Cao was named prime minister and Cao Cao promised to rebuild Luoyang City.
Guo Jia immediately said with emotion: "My lord, this method combines strength and softness! Wonderful!"
Xi Zhicai holds his beard and smiles,
Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Slap a sweet date, I didn't expect Lao Cao's tricks to become so smooth!"
"Cao seems to have heard someone speak ill of him behind his back!"
