Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2201 Pray For Blessing
Xu County, the residence of the Great General.

"How many times has this been assassinated?" 』

Cao Cao thought somewhat angrily, and then a little bit of helplessness emerged from his heart.Cao Cao was afraid of death, so he was assassinated, but he did not die, and those who were not afraid of death, like Sun Ce, died long ago.

The cost of assassination is low and the income is high, so even though the success rate is very low, there are still people who want to give it a try.

What if, right, what if...

It's like a lottery shop for future generations.

Cao Cao himself couldn't remember how many times he had been assassinated, but it must have been at least ten times.Sometimes the assassin is a single person, sometimes a group of people, and then they all shout to kill villains, traitors, Qing emperors, everything, and even some people say that they can observe the sky, detect Yin and Yang, Knowing the name of the future came to the door, holding a sharp knife in his arms, and then said that he would have a private chat with Cao Cao...

Cao Cao unceremoniously sent them on the road directly.

Especially those who claimed to know the future, Cao Cao couldn't help but want to put a knife on their necks, and asked them if they knew whether their next moment would be life or death?

pregnancy?Sorry, you miscalculated.

The knife is drawn and pulled.

puff……

die?Congratulations, you got it right.

The knife is also a stroke.

puff……

Ever since the three brothers Zhang Jiao started the incident with the so-called Mandate of Heaven, Cao Cao hated these pretenders very much, and even issued an order to expel the Taoists and wipe out the Taoist temples. Later, under the persuasion of Xun Yu and others, he restrained himself a little.

If everything is predestined, then what is there to struggle for? What is the use of hard work?

This big man has become extremely corrupt, the emperor is responsible, the eunuchs are responsible, and the gentry officials of the dynasty are also responsible!

Everyone is responsible, and no one can escape!
In the first half of Cao Cao's life, he only saw everyone, everyone, angrily accusing others and shirking their own responsibilities.

Cao Cao didn't want to be that kind of person, so he tried to do some things, to fulfill some responsibilities, and the result...

The five-color stick was set up, and then the eunuch wanted to kill him.

After clearing the beetle officials, the big family will kill him.

Stabilized the place, and then the friend wanted to kill him.

Block the knife for the brother, and then the brother wants to kill him.

Fight in all directions, and then the emperor wants to kill him.

It seems that everyone wants Cao Cao to die, smiling on the surface, cursing behind his back, and even taking action...

Is he really a traitor who does all kinds of evil and deserves death?
Cao Cao also admitted that his hands were indeed stained with a lot of innocent blood. To this day, he sometimes dreams of these unjustly dead souls staring at him coldly, but Cao Cao feels that all the decisions he made along the way , was the best and only decision he could make at that time.

Maybe it was wrong...

But at that time, there was only that, only that.

Rightly wrong.At least it made sense at the time.Then when you find that you have made a mistake, you admit your mistake, admit your mistake, and then correct your mistake.But the problem is that some people don't think there is something wrong, and they are even less willing to change...

Cao Cao couldn't help but sighed.

It's really tiring to get to this point.For ordinary people, being a great general may already be the peak that can be achieved except for the emperor, but when Cao Cao looked up, he found that the road ahead of him still seemed to be long.

Especially that damned hussar, twisting and twisting out of coquettish steps in front...

snort!
Naturally, he must continue on his own path.

And continue to go down, then, how many assassinations do you need to go through?

Cao Cao is no stranger to assassination, because he has done it himself.

But just because I have done this before does not mean that I will be calm when encountering this matter.It's like the keyboard man who likes to accuse this wrong and that bad keyboard man from above, and doesn't want to be accused by others with the same attitude.

Everyone likes double standards, and Cao Cao is also a mortal, which is normal.

The face was covered with thick powder, which made Cao Cao feel itchy, but he could not scratch it or move it.After all, the fans of the Han Dynasty were not as sticky as those of the later generations, so it was inevitable that they would lose their fans as soon as they moved, which made Cao Cao, the big UP owner, feel very uncomfortable.

"My lord..." Cao Hong walked in, then turned his head and looked out, "The angel has left the palace..."

Angels are coming.

It's not the birdman from the west, but Liu Xie's emissary.

"Who made it?" ’ Cao Cao asked.

Cao Hong grinned, "It's a middle official..."

"Middle officer? 』Cao Cao raised his eyebrows.

The assassination of the general, such a big matter, if Liu Xie didn't send someone to "visit", then it would definitely be abnormal, but when he really wanted to send someone to come, Liu Xie had a difficult time, after much deliberation, he finally He still sent the eunuchs around him, and did not choose to send a minister to visit...

This is very interesting.

"Hehe..." Cao Cao sneered twice, then walked to the bed, ready to pretend to lie down, but when he lifted the brocade quilt, a strong smell of blood and herbs came to his nostrils, and Cao Cao couldn't help but hum. He sneezed twice, and then sneezed loudly, some powder fell off his face, "Why is the smell so choking..."

Although Cao Cao was complaining, his body lay down obediently...

After all, if it weren't for such a strong smell of blood and herbs, it wouldn't be able to reflect Cao Cao's injuries. Wouldn't it be a fraud?

"Bonin, how are you doing? ’ Cao Cao asked.

While covering the brocade quilt for Cao Cao, Cao Hong said, "Although we have arrested some, we still haven't found the person in charge..."

Cao Cao snorted, "After the angel leaves, you go to Shangshutai..."

"My lord means..." Cao Hong turned his head to look at Cao Cao, then pondered for a moment, "A little bigger? 』

Cao Cao nodded slightly, "Bo Ning is not a fool, he knows what to do. 』

Yes, if Man Chong is not stupid, he must act according to Cao Cao's wishes, otherwise he will be the next to die.

Cao Cao originally planned to direct and act on his own, but he didn't expect a real assassin to come, so if Cao Cao didn't make good use of it, wouldn't it be a waste?

As for who is behind the assassin, the truth is not that important.

There is no truth, only politics.

Cao Hong nodded slightly, indicating that he had received Cao Cao's message. At this moment, the guard outside the door raised his voice, "Report to my lord!"Angel has arrived! 』

Cao Cao slightly raised his chin as a signal, then lay down, and began to groan in pain...

Cao Hong also sank his face, and turned around with a worried expression on his face, instead of Cao Cao, he went to meet the angel.

In fact, the angels in the East and the West also have some similarities.The angels in the West have more chicken wings, but the angels sent by Liu Xie lack chicken heads. Anyway, they can't get along with chickens...

Liu Xie's angel is the eunuch of the Huangmen, a middle official in the inner palace, who serves with a pen. Although he has a great name, he actually has no rights at all, because Liu Xie himself doesn't have many memorials to read, so the so-called "serve with a pen" is left If you have an empty title, you can't control anything.

But at this moment, the eunuch serving with a pen still represents Liu Xie to some extent, so Cao Hong and others still maintain the proper attitude in terms of etiquette, leading the eunuch all the way inward...

"This...this is..." The eunuch asked in surprise when he saw tents of all sizes in the courtyard, as well as some ordinary soldiers sitting or lying in them, "Could it be that these... On that day..."

"Exactly, this is the guard who was injured that day..." Cao Hong said in a deep voice, "They are all warriors!"The general gave permission to receive medical care together in the mansion. 』

Cao Hong's voice was not too loud, and it could be heard by these soldiers. Immediately, these soldiers straightened up one after another, and even the originally painful groans were slightly lowered.

The smell of blood is very strong for one person recuperating, not to mention that so many people are gathered in the front yard of the General's Mansion?
In addition, the doctors of Jinchuangke are also treating the wound, this smell...

Accustomed to serving with a pen in the palace, he subconsciously covered his mouth and nose, and then immediately realized that this action was wrong, put it down quickly, and tried to laugh twice in embarrassment as a cover, but still attracted many unkind soldiers gaze.

Allowing these wounded soldiers to be raised in the mansion and enjoy the care of the general's mansion physicians will naturally allow them to get better herbs and diet, which in some ways increases the survival rate of these soldiers.Cao Cao made such a move, on the one hand, it can be seen as Cao Cao buying the army's morale, on the other hand, it is also Cao Cao's reward for the loyalty of these soldiers.

Or is there another explanation?
Serving Bingbi rolled his eyeballs twice, thinking of something...

Generally speaking, loyalty should naturally be rewarded, otherwise, who else will be loyal next time?

When a leader forgets or ignores the loyalty displayed by his subordinates, and begins to think that this loyalty should be done by everyone, and even starts to say that loyalty is a duty...

Then loyalty is not far away from becoming a mere formality, and it may even evolve into verbal loyalty.

It's like Liu Xie asked his ministers to be loyal, and he also asked everyone in the world to be loyal to him, unconditional loyalty.But in the end, Liu Xie couldn't even get the loyalty of ordinary ministers, so he could only let the eunuchs come.Because the eunuch is a special position that exists only when attached to the imperial power, so normally most eunuchs would side with the emperor, which is not wrong at all, but unfortunately Liu Xie forgot one thing...

Even if he took the position of serving the pen, he was still an eunuch.

Ever since he entered the Grand General's Mansion, he was not used to serving with a pen. The strong smell of blood and groans made the eunuch uneasy, especially when he arrived in the inner courtyard and saw Dian Wei, who stood like an iron tower at the gate of the inner courtyard, had all kinds of scars on his body, old and new. When he stared at him fiercely, he couldn't hold back his pen to serve, and secretly leaked a little urine. ...

This is a common problem of eunuchs, there is no way.This is true both physically and psychologically.

For most eunuchs, the space of their life is within the square walls, and the sky they can see is such a big piece, and the farthest place they have been to may be just the market place in the city. Under such conditions, how much insight and courage do these eunuchs have?

Before seeing Cao Cao, the eunuch was already trembling, and then he waited into the hall, finished the so-called caring words of the emperor Liu Xie to Cao Cao according to the scriptures, and just wanted to follow Liu Xie's secret order to get closer Some, carefully observed Cao Cao's injuries, but was directly stopped by Cao Hong who was on the side.

"What do you want to do?" ! "Cao Hong asked angrily, "The general is seriously injured, and the doctor repeatedly told him not to be infected with evil spirits!"You disabled people, do you want to contaminate the general with evil spirits and harm the general? 』

When Liu Xie's will was read out, he was naturally an angel, and after reading out, it was like a piece of paper that had been wiped.

Cao Hong's sudden accusation made the eunuch clench his legs in fright, and waved his hands in denial: "How dare, how dare, how dare slaves and maidservants go against the general...just..."

"Just what? 』Cao Hong is still wide-eyed.

"It's okay, it's okay... In that case, the servant is leaving... The general will take good care of him, and he will recover soon..." Speaking of which, the eunuch's ability to perceive words and emotions is first-rate, those eunuchs and court ladies who don't know how to read faces He didn't live long, so the eunuch felt chills behind his back, and felt more and more that if he continued to stay, his life might be at stake, so he immediately forgot Liu Xie's confession. Simply see that the situation is not right and leave immediately.

Cao Cao pretended to move reluctantly, and then ordered Cao Hong in a hoarse voice not to be rude, and asked Cao Hong to give the eunuch some money as labor expenses...

The eunuch's face looked better now, and after saying a few auspicious words, he nodded and bowed and exited the door, then straightened up when he reached the courtyard, and staggered away.

When Cao Cao saw the eunuch left, he immediately lifted the quilt and washed his face without mentioning it. He just said that he had returned to the palace with his pen in his service. Naturally, Liu Xie summoned him immediately, and then asked about the specific situation of Cao Cao.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the general... I'm afraid you're seriously injured..." It's impossible for Bingbi to say that he didn't see anything. Such a "small task" is to use self-imagination and brain supplementation as much as possible to make Liu Xie believe that he has gone through so much hard work, so brave, so many experiences, and so many hardships to obtain the most precious information.

Otherwise, how can they prove to Liu Xie that they are useful people?

"It smells bloody? ”Liu Xie frowned and said, “There is also the smell of herbs? 』

『Your Majesty, it is true. The servant Bingbi lowered his head and said, "Perhaps the general was trying to cover up his serious injury, so that he could cover his face with thick powder to hide his pale complexion... In addition, the general ordered the wounded soldiers to be treated together in the hospital. In order to test the medicine, to prevent those who enter the medicine from mixing poison in the medicine...』

"Hiss..." Liu Xie took a deep breath.

This is indeed something that an old thief who is afraid of death can do, but ordinary people really can't do it!

So to say……

"Understood..." Liu Xie nodded calmly, "Thank you for your hard work..."

"Sharing His Majesty's worries is the blessing of a slave..."

Bingbi waiter lowered his head, then pouted his buttocks, stepped back in small steps, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he was outside the door.Turning his head, he found a small piece of robe flashing past in the corner of the hall...

Holding a pen to serve a Jiling, just subconsciously wanted to shout, but then reacted, shut up suddenly, almost biting his own tongue, pretending he didn’t see anything, slipped along the shadow under the eaves of the main hall, away.

In the imperial palace, sometimes they pretended not to see, and often they did not hear, and they often forgot some things that should have been seen or heard.

Liu Xie didn't know this, he just sat on the throne blankly, and then his heart kept rolling, and there was a thought that couldn't be restrained...

Could it be that the sky has opened its eyes?

At this moment, Liu Xie even felt that there seemed to be his father, his father's father, and a large group of heroic spirits of the emperor of the Han Dynasty in midair, all showing eight big teeth towards him, which seemed to indicate that the future big man would be a piece of light...

Dahan, ZTE's opportunity has finally come!
So now...

No, no.

Not yet.

Liu Xie stood up slowly.

Han Lingdi was originally a side branch prince who only knew how to eat, drink and play, and Liu Xie was originally like this, but the sky just likes to tease people, so that the father and son who were not prepared to become the emperor at the beginning became the emperor in the end.

Emperor Han Ling spent his whole life trying to find a way to engage in politics. Unfortunately, Emperor Han Ling didn't have a good master and didn't learn any good strategies, so he finally collapsed from playing, tired, and broke the jar.

After all, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, or the emperor of which family or dynasty, pay attention, it is the emperor, the kind with a lifelong tenure. Since they know that they will do this job to death, at least at the beginning of taking office, most people Still want to do better...

Liu Xie is no exception.

But it is not easy to be a good emperor.

Liu Xie didn't have any masters since he was a child. Like his old man, he practiced and learned at the same time after he took office.Dong Zhuo taught him that as an emperor, he needs to be patient; Wang Yun taught him that, as a son of heaven, he needs to be in power; Cao Cao taught him that, as his majesty, he needs to compromise...

As for Hussar General Fei Qian...

Liu Xie's footsteps towards the entrance of the main hall paused slightly.

The hussar general Fei Qian seemed to have taught him many things, but he also seemed to have taught him nothing.

So, if I said I stayed in Chang'an back then, would I also face the same situation as now?
Could it be even worse?

Who knows?

Liu Xie smiled slightly, sighed, and then looked back at the place where he was sitting before.In front of the black and red screen decorated with gold and silver, there is an equally elegant and luxurious throne decorated with gold and silver, and now only Liu Xie himself can sit on the throne...

"It really looks beautiful... No wonder so many people want to sit..." Liu Xie muttered to himself in a low voice, "But only those who sit on it know that this position is cold and hard, and there is a lot of pain behind it." It’s empty, and my bones hurt a little after sitting for a long time... Hehe... Humph...』

After chuckling a few times, Liu Xie turned his head, walked out of the hall slowly, and said in a deep voice, "Come on!"Let's drive, go to Taimiao!I want to personally pray for the great general in the Taimiao! 』
