People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 335 Three words and three concessions, Xuzhou changed hands

Cao Cao acted resolutely, and immediately arranged for Xiahou Dun to sit in Puyang, Xiahou Yuan blocked the border, and he himself, with Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Le Jin, Yu Jin, Dian Wei, Li Gan, and Li Dian's uncle and nephew... led an army of [-], and formally sent troops to Qingzhou .

The persimmons are soft, he wants to fight, not Tian Kai in the north of Qingzhou, but Kong Rong in the south of Qingzhou. Tian Kai is brave and resourceful, and he is a hero. Although Kong Rong is a celebrity, he is very good at fighting and capable. Those surrounded by yellow scarves could not leave the city, and Cao Cao was confident that he could take them down.

Qingzhou has been making troubles about the Yellow Turban for many years, and now it is also the Pingyuan Country, the Beihai Kingdom, which is still relatively prosperous. Kong Rong is the Prime Minister of the Beihai Kingdom.

Cao Cao, that is, to eat the big family.

At the same time, major events also happened in Xuzhou. Tao Qian was old and frail, and was beaten by Cao Cao to heart failure. After all, he is still terminally ill.

Donghai, Tan County!
In front of Tao Qian's bed, there were pottery merchants and Tao Ying on their knees first, followed by a group of civil servants and generals from Xuzhou, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun.

Tao Qian gasped for breath. He also knew that he was about to die, so he turned his head and glanced at the weeping pottery merchant and Tao Ying, feeling a burst of disappointment in his heart.

As long as Tao Ying is a pottery merchant, he can give Xuzhou to his son, but now, because of him, Xuzhou was attacked by Cao Cao, blood flowed into rivers, and corpses piled up into mountains. But he will no longer concentrate on helping himself and his son.

For the sake of the pottery merchant, Tao Ying should live well, and for the sake of not severing the blood of the family, Tao Qian could only speak hoarsely:
"Xuande, I can't do it anymore. Because of me, countless people in Xuzhou were killed and injured. I hate, I regret, I am incompetent. The only way now is to ask you to take charge of Xuzhou after my death!"

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard the words. He didn't know whether it was true or false. He immediately waved his hands and refused repeatedly:
"Tao Gong values ​​it, and I am grateful, but how can he be able to take charge of Xuzhou if he is so unknown!"

Tao Qian forced himself to get up and said fiercely:
"Back when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, the princes of all the towns refused to save me in Xuzhou. Without Xuande's help, millions of people in Xuzhou would have died without a whole body..."

"If you can't take charge of Xuzhou, who else can take charge of Xuzhou, Yuan Long, get the great seal of Xuzhou and the memorial I prepared!"

Chen Deng took the order immediately, and quickly took the Xuzhou seal and a memorandum.

Tao Qian took Liu Bei's hand, earnestly, begged:
"Xuande, this is my memorial to proclaim you as the governor of Xuzhou, and the great seal of Xuzhou. If you sympathize with the old man, if you sympathize with the common people, please accept it!"

Liu Bei was hesitant, and always refused to agree:
"No, no..."

Zhang Fei couldn't bear to watch it, so he opened his mouth and said loudly:

"Brother, Tao Gong is like this, so you stay in Xuzhou and become the governor!"

Then Guan Yu frowned and said:

"Third brother, don't be rude!"

He was also anxious, but it was too rude to say so.

In fact, it's not just Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Mi Zhu, Chen Deng and others who are also anxious. They don't want to help the potter, Tao Ying, two unlucky things. They know what they can do, and they can't help them at all.

But Tao Qian is still alive, the old master is still there, even if he wants to defect to the new master, it should not be too obvious, not everyone is Lu Bu.

At this time, Tao Qian was also anxious, and he said loudly:
"Xuande, don't let me die in peace!!"

Seeing this, Liu Bei finally had no choice but to agree:
"Then Bei will not refuse anymore. Before the imperial court arranges for a new governor to come over, he will definitely protect the millions of people in Xuzhou!"

Tao Qian breathed a sigh of relief, Mi Zhu, Chen Deng... breathed a sigh of relief, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, breathed a sigh of relief, he finally agreed to this chaotic Liu Bei.

Tao Qian lost his mind, and his body couldn't hold it anymore, but in an instant, his face was flushed, as if he had completely recovered. Looking at the pottery merchant, Tao Ying said:
"Then Xuzhou will be entrusted to Xuande. After I die, I will be buried in Xuzhou without face. See you again with countless innocent souls in Xuzhou. Shang'er, Ying'er, take me back, take me back to Danyang, remember! !!"

Tao Ying, a pottery merchant, must not stay in Xuzhou. As long as he stays in Xuzhou, he will die sooner or later. Although he will not die in the hands of Liu Bei, he will die in the hands of other people.

The pottery merchant, Tao Ying, saw Tao Qian being so serious, and was afraid in his heart, so he nodded repeatedly:

"Remember, remember!"

Hearing this, Tao Qian smiled, a little relieved, a little bitter, he was relieved that the two sons were obedient, but bitter that the two sons were incompetent, and then fell backwards, dying of breath, and died.

The pottery merchant and Tao Ying cried loudly, and a group of Xuzhou civil and military officials also pretended to be sad.

But at this time, Liu Bei spoke again:

"You two sons, although Mr. Tao asked me to take over Xuzhou, if you want to take over Xuzhou, you can take away the seal now, and I will never stop it!"

Tao Qian is dead, how could he think that Liu Bei would do this again, if he was still alive, he would definitely point at Liu Bei's nose and yell at him, if he wants to kill my whole family, just say so if he cuts off his blood.

Tao Shang and Tao Ying turned their heads when they heard the words, first they looked at Liu Bei, and then they looked at Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Mi Zhu, and Chen Deng who had changed their momentum... They immediately shook their heads with fear on their faces:

"No, no, Mr. Liu, we want to send my father back to his hometown, and we have to keep a filial piety for my father. Please let Mr. Liu go!"

Mi Zhu immediately spoke to persuade:
"The two sons are pure filial piety, please don't stop Mr. Liu!"

Chen Deng also opened his mouth to persuade:
"I hope Mr. Liu can take pity on the soldiers and civilians of Xuzhou, don't refuse like this again!"

Xuzhou was right in front of them, and Liu Bei gave up as soon as he said he would give up. Just for this, they still admire them quite a lot, but for the sake of their respective futures, they must not let Liu Bei give up easily.

Seeing the Tao merchant, Tao Ying refused, and Mi Zhu, Chen Deng persuaded, Liu Bei took another look at Tao Qian, and could only say sadly:

"In this way, I will definitely protect the millions of people in Xuzhou, and comfort Tao Gong's spirit in heaven!"

All the people on the left and right saluted, and said:
"Meet Duke Ming!"

After Tao Qian's death, Xuzhou changed hands, and Liu Bei really became a prince!
It was related to the ownership of the land of Xuzhou, and the news spread quickly.

East County, Puyang.

At this moment in Chen Gong's own home, the expression on his face was inexplicable, and he thought:

"Liu Bei understands righteousness, is a gentleman, respects the virtuous and respects scholars, and is loved by the people. This is different from Cao Cao. If he can be the master of Yanzhou, it will be a blessing for all the people of Yanzhou..."

Thinking of this, he immediately set off to visit Zhang Miao. Chen Gong wanted to give Cao Cao a big surprise.

In the eyes of Chen Gong, Cao Cao is not the master of the Ming Dynasty at all, and he is not worthy of being the master of Yanzhou.
