Chapter 1043: "Turtle Although Shou"
In fact, when Cao Cao said this, he was estimating in his heart, Zhao Feng has only taken fifteen years from the chaos of the world to the current unification of the Han Dynasty, and in these fifteen years, Zhao Feng's strength has been strengthened little by little. And how strong this world is, Cao Cao doesn't know, but he believes that Zhao Feng will definitely not take too long!
"What Brother Meng De said, the wind has no bottom in his heart!" Zhao Feng said with a wry smile, "If I say that I can dominate the world within thirty years, it is pure nonsense, and I don't believe it myself!" ”
"This world is still full of unknowns!" Zhao Feng sighed and said.
"Hmm!" Cao Cao nodded approvingly.
"I wonder if Brother Meng De is willing to help the wind?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly, his eyes staring at Cao Cao.
"Me? How can I help you? I have lived for more than fifty years now, but I can't catch up with you Zhao Feng's short few years, what ability or qualification do I have to help you? Cao Cao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Brother Meng De, what you said is not right, Xu Zijiang once commented on Brother Meng De: The capable minister who rules the world, the traitorous male in the troubled times, I have seen the true nature of the traitorous male, so he is about to rule the world, I don't know if Brother Meng De is willing to deign to be a capable minister?" Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"What kind of traitorous and capable minister, isn't it your Zhao Feng's defeated general? I don't have that heart right now! Forget it! Cao Cao waved his hand.
"Hehe, it's just that Brother Meng De doesn't want to admit it, how can Brother Meng De's ability not know?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly, "Brother Meng De, you said that you are old, but as everyone knows, my Liaodong general Huang Zhong is now over the age of six, and he is still charging into battle and fighting bravely!" As everyone knows, my father-in-law Cai Yong and Mr. Zheng Kangcheng are both close to old age, but they are still in good spirits and serve as the vice president and vice president of my Eastern Liaoning University! And Brother Wentai, aren't you also ready to go to war at any time? Why is it only you, Cao Cao, who has lost his heart? ”
Listening to Zhao Feng's words, Cao Cao was silent in his heart, Cao Cao knew all the people listed by Zhao Feng, and he also knew that Zhao Feng took these people as examples, that is, he Cao Cao couldn't use age as an excuse to shirk!
However, when Cao Cao decided to surrender to Zhao Feng, he no longer had such a heart, and he just wanted to spend the rest of his life in peace!
"Brother Mengde, I think, I have a poem here to give you!" Zhao Feng pondered for a moment, and then said.
"Oh? me! Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, very interested.
"The name of this poem is "Turtle Although Shou"!" Zhao Feng finally decided to return Cao Cao's own poem to Cao Cao, and this poem "Turtle Although Shou" was composed in early 208 AD, after he put down the Wuhuan rebellion and eliminated the remnants of Yuan Shao's forces, before he went south to conquer Jing and Wu. At this time, Cao Cao was fifty-three years old, and he couldn't help but think of the journey of life! He compares himself to an old horse, although he is old and decrepit, and he is subservient, but his chest is still full of pride and ambition to gallop thousands of miles.
And at this moment, Cao Cao does not have this kind of pride and ambition, and this song "Turtle Although Shou" will naturally not be able to be made!
"Although the turtle is long, there is still a time. The snake rides the fog and ends up in dust! Zhao Feng slowly read out the first sentence.
"Although the turtle is long-lived, there is still a time when the snake rides the fog and eventually turns into dust?" Cao Cao carefully savored the first two sentences read by Zhao Feng in his heart, "The Zhuangzi Qiushui Chapter says: 'I heard that there is a divine turtle in Chu, and it has been dead for three thousand years. But Zhao Feng used it the opposite, saying that the Divine Turtle lived for 3,000 years, but it was still inevitable that it would die! "Han Feizi: Difficult Situation" records: "The flying dragon rides the clouds, the beetle snake swims in the fog, the clouds stop the fog, and the dragon and snake are the same!" This 'beetle snake' can ride the clouds and fog like a dragon, and its skills can be described as great! However, once the clouds clear, they are like flies and ants, and they are gone! Yes, it is! ”
Cao Cao couldn't help but look forward to Zhao Feng's next verses.
"The old man is in the bush, his ambition is thousands of miles, the martyr is in his twilight years, and his heart is strong!" After speaking, Zhao Feng was stunned again, staring at Cao Cao.
Cao Cao, on the other hand, sat there stunned as if he had been electrocuted.
"Lao Ji is in the twilight of his life, and his heart is strong! This...... Is this talking about me? Should it really be like this? Cao Cao's heart kept asking himself if this was the case.
"The period of profit and contraction is not only in the sky, but also the blessing of recuperation, but also eternal years!" Immediately, Zhao Feng smiled slightly, "If you finish, just use Brother Mengde's own poems, fortunately, even ah, the song is a song!" ”
After listening to the whole poem, Cao Cao was completely stunned, and the fire in his heart that had been extinguished seemed to have been rekindled!
"Brother Meng De, it's not so much that this poem is given to you, but to all the veterans who are still charging at the front line, and the old gentlemen who are still working hard in the court! Give it to myself, you and I encourage you! Although we are getting older, our strong spirit cannot be erased! Zhao Feng said firmly.
"Hahaha!" After listening to Zhao Feng's words, Cao Cao laughed, "Zihu, Zihu, I have to say, your eloquence is really good!" That's all said and done, if I, Cao Cao, don't agree again, then I really can't say it! ”
"Brother Meng De agreed?!" Zhao Feng was pleasantly surprised.
"Not bad! Cao Cao, meet the lord! With that, Cao Cao got up and bowed to Zhao Feng.
"Brother Meng De doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't have to be like this!" Zhao Feng hurriedly helped Cao Cao up, "In private, we are still good brothers!" ”
"Okay, then I'm not hypocritical!" Cao Cao nodded in agreement.
"We're going to have dinner together tonight, and we're going to have a good drink then!" Zhao Fengdao.
"The two of us?" Cao Cao was slightly stunned.
"Yes, it's just the two of us, and it's just the two of us!" Zhao Feng smiled and nodded.
"Well, we won't get drunk or go home!" Cao Cao nodded and decisively agreed.
"Brother Meng De, in the future, if I ascend the throne and become emperor, will you blame me for seeking power and usurping the throne?" Zhao Feng suddenly calmed down and asked solemnly.
"What about being emperor? The world was originally defeated by you Zhao Feng, what is there to be called the emperor? In my opinion, it is inevitable that you, Zhao Feng, will be called the emperor, otherwise, not only those soldiers under you, but even the people of the world will not agree! Cao Cao said disapprehantly.
In his opinion, now that Zhao Feng's power has developed to such an extent, then ascending the throne and becoming emperor is also an inevitable result!
