Chapter 69: On the Princes of the World
& Thank you to the cold ice brother for two consecutive tips!
& Where is Mr. Zhi from? ”
After the two sides sat down, Cao Cao did not immediately start to take the school drama test, after all, the Chinese way of talking is still more subtle, unlike the Westerners in later generations, who are straightforward.
Obviously, Xi Zhong also agrees with this, so there is no anxiety on his face, and he smiled slightly: "I am a person from Yingchuan, I heard that Cao Gong is here, plus the recruitment order issued before, so I came to meet today." ”
Cao Cao nodded, and said with a sudden smile: "It turns out that Mr. is from Yingchuan, Yingchuan is a good place, it can be described as an outstanding person." ”
Cao Cao, who said this, suddenly became inexplicable, in his mind, his face was sick, his name was Xizhong, and he was a person from Yingchuan, these three clues were like being connected by a line at this time, which made Cao Cao think of something at once.
&Isn't it him? ”
Although he felt a little excited because of his inexplicable speculation, the expression on Cao Cao's face did not change in the slightest, as if he was just asking each other politely: "I don't know what Mr.'s full name is?" ”
& The next surname is Zhong, and the word is Zhicai. Xi Zhong, no, it should be said that it was Xi Zhicai, and smiled at Cao Cao.
& Talent, both ambition and talent, the so-called ambition is high, the talent is very high, Mr. is a good name. Cao Cao said with an appreciative smile.
Don't look at Cao Cao's surface without the slightest abnormality, but in fact, Cao Cao's heart is very excited at this time, who is Xi Zhicai, that is not inferior to Guo Jia's top strategist, and it is also the first strategist under Cao Cao in history.
It's a pity that the reputation of Xi Zhicai was not so loud in later generations, so it was not until this time, after seeing the real person, that Cao Cao remembered him, and remembered that there was such a top strategist with wisdom like the sea in history.
However, although he was excited, Cao Cao grasped it very well and did not show it on his face, so in Xi Zhicai's opinion, Cao Cao's attitude was a little more eager than before, and there was nothing unusual.
& If it's really the drama talent above history, then no matter what, let him stay! ”
Cao Cao made up his mind to pay attention to it, if the drama Zhicai in front of him is really as described in history, a top strategist who is not inferior to Guo Jia, then even if he is tied, he will be tied to Chen Liu, as for how to know whether the drama Zhicai in front of him is as described in history, it is also very easy, that is, to ask the plan.
Cao Cao raised the teacup in front of him and took a sip, the stickiness from his mouth made Cao Cao frown a little uncomfortably, but he quickly covered up the past, Cao Cao, who put down the teacup, smiled at Xi Zhicai and asked: "Since Mr. has come to meet, there must be something to teach me, and I hope Mr. will give me advice." ”
For Cao Cao's school examination, Xi Zhicai did not have the slightest nervousness, but closed his eyes very leisurely and tasted the tea in the teacup in front of him, then opened his eyes, bowed slightly to Cao Cao, straightened his waist and said: "Cao Gong, today's chaos, across the state and county, the occupation of the territory, can be described as innumerable, the strongest prince in the world in the past, although he escaped into the land of the Sanqin Pass at this time, unfortunately, Dong Zhuo has lost his courage, not to worry, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, these two Han clan relatives, Although they occupy the two richest states in the world, Yizhou and Jingzhou, it is a pity that Liu Yan and Liu Biao are old and can no longer live up to the ambitions of their youth! ”
Speaking of this, Xi Zhicai paused slightly, seeing that Cao Cao was not the slightest impatient, but was thinking carefully, a touch of recognition flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "Xiliang Ma Teng, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang, Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Jizhou Mu Han Fu, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, Yangzhou Thorn Shi Chen Wen, Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, these people are all busy people, Cao Gong doesn't have to care too much. ”
&
Cao Cao, who heard this, suddenly let out a surprise and asked with a puzzled and surprised face: "Why did Mr. say this, you must know that Yuan Highway, but after the fourth and third dukes, its reputation can be said to have spread all over the world, and at the same time it occupies the land of Nanyang, which is extremely rich, I heard that at this time, it has 300,000 troops, which can be described as a world-famous one!" ”
Of course, Cao Cao understands that Yuan Shu, compared to other people, such as Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Yuan Shao, etc., can be said to be very unpopular, that is, a busy person, but it is because Cao Cao has the memory of later generations that he can come up with such an answer.
But why did Xi Zhicai, who has no memory of later generations, come up with such an answer, Cao Cao wants to know very much, so the doubts on Cao Cao's face are not all playing.
& This person, although he is famous after the fame, the fame spreads all over the world, but this person, arrogant, self-serving, blind, and mean, has always thought that he is superior, has a strong ambition in his heart, but does not have the foresight and mind to match his ambition, the final result, that is, the higher he stands, the worse he falls. When Xi Zhicai talked about Yuan Shu, the tone in his words all showed that he was not optimistic about Yuan Shu.
Cao Cao nodded, accepted Xi Zhicai's words, and thought about it carefully, Yuan Shu's personality was not exactly the same as what Xi Zhicai said at this time, arrogant, self-serving, unscrupulous and mean, what can a person with such a heart achieve in the end.
After understanding the fundamental reason why Yuan Shu would eventually perish, Cao Cao's face at this time was finally no longer the unhappy smile, but asked eagerly with some appreciation: "That being the case, then Mr. I don't know how many people in this world are worthy of attention." ”
&Jian, Yuan Shao, and ・・・・・・"
Xi Zhicai, who blurted out the names of Sun Jian and Yuan Shao, paused when he said the rest of the story, and it could be seen that there was uncertainty in his eyes, as if there was something in his heart that could not be determined.
But in the end, the uncertain color in Xi Zhicai's eyes disappeared immediately, and he said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Also, it is Liu Bei of the Plains Order." ”
&Ready? ”
Even a person like Cao Cao, who has a good grasp of himself and can be indistinguishable from joy and anger, can't help but show a look of surprise on his face at this time.
In this time and space, due to the existence of Cao Cao, a traveler from later generations, although Liu Bei's reputation eventually spread all over the world, this reputation is not a good reputation in the time and space of the previous life, but a bad reputation, and since he was escorted by the coalition forces under the Tiger Prison and escaped at night, Cao Cao has not heard his name for a long time.
