Chapter 359: Great Gift

In the Luoyang Palace, Liu Xie held a banquet in the court hall to wash the dust for Cao Cao.

"Come, everyone toast Cao Aiqing."

All the ministers raised their glasses, all in respect of Cao Cao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you colleagues, Meng De did it first." Cao Cao raised his glass in return one by one, then drank it all and put down the wine glass.

"Cao Aiqing has a good amount of alcohol." Liu Xie raised his glass and took a small peck, put it down and said: "Cao Aiqing, now that Luoyang has just recovered, he needs Aiqing's help." ”

Cao Cao said: "Your Majesty, Luoyang is no longer suitable for the Han capital after the scourge of Dong thieves, so it is better to go to Yanzhou to stay in Chen." ”

"Chen Liuchengchi is tall, and the people are living and working in peace and contentment, Your Majesty is here, just enough to revive the Han River."

Well?

Going to Chenliu, it seems that this is the purpose of Cao Cao's trip.

Liu Xiedao: "Cao Aiqing, from the Han Dynasty to Emperor Guangwu, the capital was built in Luoyang, how can a widow abandon the ancestral foundation and let the world spurn." ”

Cao Cao said: "After more than 200 years of the Han Dynasty, there was a disaster of Wang Mang, and the Guangwu Emperor built the capital Luoyang, so as to continue the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and His Majesty moved the capital to Chenliu, which is to follow the example of Emperor Guangwu, and will be famous for all generations." ”

Using the analogy of Emperor Guangwu, it did make Liu Xie feel a little excited, but Chen Liunai was Cao Cao's foundation, and Liu Xie still resisted in his heart.

"At present, Luoyang has slowly recovered, and if there is a sudden big move, I am afraid that the situation that has finally stabilized will be ruined again."

Cao Cao said: "Your Majesty can't go to Chenliu because of a small loss, outside the minister, inside Your Majesty, or in a few years, you will be able to wipe out all the princes in one fell swoop, if you stay in Luoyang, I'm afraid it will take several years to recover." ”

This matter is too important, and Liu Xie can't make up his mind for a while, so he can only change the topic.

"Cao Aiqing has been running around for days, she should be tired, and she will talk about this matter in a while, just drink and have fun today."

Seeing that Liu Xie intended to change the topic, Cao Cao didn't say much, after all, this matter could not be solved overnight.

Not to mention state affairs, the atmosphere of the banquet has improved a lot, and everyone eats and drinks, so they are comfortable and happy.

After the banquet dispersed, Cao Cao returned to the residence he had prepared and convened his subordinates to discuss.

Because there were many people toasting at the banquet, Cao Cao's face was already slightly red, and he was closing his eyes at this time.

"Let's talk about it, what have you gained these days."

Mao Jiedao: "The lord, the ministers of the central government, more than half of them are willing to move to Yanzhou, but Your Majesty is unwilling, and the ministers are also lobbying in vain. ”

"At present, the defense of Luoyang City is presided over by His Majesty's henchman Xu Huang, who is brave and strategic, and is a rare general."

Cao Cao said: "If you want to subdue this person, can you be sure?" ”

Mao Jiedao: "I'm afraid it's difficult, although Your Majesty is young, he can convince people's hearts, but he is very set." ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Zilian, all the soldiers and horses, what is the movement?" ”

Cao Hong said: "My lord, Yan Liang, the general of Yuan Shao, has been training soldiers and horses in the camp all day long, and there is nothing unusual about it, while Zhang Fei, who is under Liu Bei's department, goes to the eighteen cavalry battalions of Li Huiyi's department every day to compete and compete. ”

"The only strange thing is that it belongs to Sun Ce's subordinate Zhang Hong, who has entered the palace many times and secretly discussed with His Majesty for a long time."

"Oh?" Cao Cao opened his eyes slightly and said, "Do you know what was discussed?" ”

Cao Hong said: "It's not clear yet, because when they discussed, they were all idle and miscellaneous people. ”

Well?

Yangzhou Sun Ce, this person is not as brave as his father, most of Yangzhou has fallen into his hands at present, if he bewitches His Majesty to go, I am afraid that it is a variable, it seems that he has to catch up with him.

Cao Cao put away his thoughts and was about to speak, when he saw that Cao Hong wanted to speak and stopped, he immediately asked, "If there is anything, just say it." ”

Cao Hong said: "My lord, when I first arrived, Lu Bu, the master of the eighteen horsemen, once said that Li Huiyi had a big gift to give to the lord. ”

"I haven't seen each other for many years, but Huiyi is still so polite." Cao Cao smiled, sweeping away the solemn expression just now.

"Zilian, go and invite Lu Bu here, I want to see if this gift is thick, whether it is enough for many years of brotherhood."

Cao Hong was embarrassed: "Lord, it's getting late now, why don't you rest and sober up first, and tomorrow morning, you won't go again." ”

Cao Cao said: "I don't know what the gift is, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sleep tonight, so you better hurry up." ”

Cao Hong reluctantly clasped his fists and saluted, turned to leave.

"You guys go back first." Cao Cao slowly closed his eyes again, waved his hand, and let everyone leave.

I haven't seen him for many years, this Liu Xie has grown up without killing, and he has gained a firm foothold in just a few months since he left Luoyang, and it seems that he is a complementary king.

But now we still have to leave Luoyang, this division is subordinate to the counties, after many wars, not a few years, I am afraid it will not be able to recover.

At present, going to Yanzhou is the best choice, which can save a lot of time, end the war as soon as possible, and return the people to a peaceful and prosperous world.

Alas!

Li Huiyi in the north is the biggest problem, and I don't know if he has thoughts about Liu Xie.

"Lord, Lu Bu has already brought it and is waiting outside the tent."

Hearing Cao Hong's voice, Cao Cao opened his eyes and said, "Let him come in, you are guarding outside, and no one is allowed to come in without an order." ”

"Lord, Lu Bu's bravery......" Hearing that Cao Cao was going to meet Lu Bu alone, Cao Hong hurriedly advised.

Cao Cao waved his hand and interrupted: "Go out, I know it." ”

Cao Hong glanced up at Cao Cao, and reluctantly turned around and left.

There was a sound of footsteps, and Yan Da entered the tent and hugged his fists and said, "Yan Da has seen Cao Zhoumu. ”

"Yanda?" Cao Cao was puzzled: "General Lu, why is this, is it because you are afraid of Meng Deji's hatred of Yanzhou, you can rest assured." ”

Yan Dadao: "In Xia Yanda, the main general of Yanyun's eighteen cavalry, I don't know who General Lu is in Caozhou's mukou, and I don't know what enmity you and I have in Yanzhou?" ”

Cao Cao took a closer look and said: "Okay, the past is unbearable, and Meng De doesn't ask much, I don't know what the big gift General Yan said, what is it?" ”

Yan Dadao: "By the order of my lord, this time regarding the affairs of His Majesty, I will not obey General Cao's arrangement, but only the affairs of Your Majesty." ”

Well?

What the hell is this Li Huiyi, why do you want to help.

Is there some conspiracy?

The unconditional help made Cao Cao suspicious and kept guessing for a while.

Unable to think of Li Huiyi's purpose, Cao Cao said: "Then Brother Huiyi, is there anything that needs Meng De?" ”

Originally, Li Huiyi was unconditional, but Yan sent the news of Luoyang back, and he decided to ask Cao Cao to do him a favor.

"Does Cao Zhou Mu know that His Majesty wants to call my lord's daughter as the queen?"

Cao Cao nodded and said, "I have heard a little, this is a good thing." ”

"A good thing?" Yan Da shook his head and said: "In the eyes of Cao Zhou Mu and the people of the world, it is a good thing, but in the eyes of my lord, it is a disaster. ”

"So my lord needs Cao Zhou's help and refuses this family business."

"Huh?" What kind of card is this Li Huiyi playing, there are relatives of the emperor and the country, and they have to refuse.

Although sacrificing a daughter's happiness, the benefits that can be exchanged are also huge.

Li Huiyi came from a humble background, and if he had the name of Uncle Guo, he could have a lot of prestige, but he refused.

Cao Cao said: "Then I don't know what Meng De needs to do?" ”

Yan Dadao: "As long as Your Majesty takes back the order, how to do things is up to Cao Zhoumu to decide." ”
