Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 462 A life of mediocrity? (Thanks to Brothers Happy Bathing and Momen Yizhidou for their four monthly tickets~)

After hearing Huangfu Song's words, Liu Xie snorted coldly and cursed directly:

"That fellow Lu Bu is really cunning! He deliberately spread this news so that he can attack our army with a legitimate reason.

"But he was able to kill Cao Cao, which fulfilled one of my biggest wishes..."

Having said that, Liu Xie turned his head to look at Jia Xu, who remained silent, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

This guy usually doesn't speak unless he can, and he never makes friends with outsiders. He advocates a low-key and independent attitude.

Normally, unless he asks, the other party will hardly take the initiative to tell him some strategies and tactics.

It really makes him love and hate...

Seeing that the other party was silent, Liu Xie could only ask:
"Wenhe, what do you think about this?"

Hearing Liu Xie calling him, Jia Xu reluctantly opened his eyes and bowed in reply:

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, Cao Cao may not be dead."

"what?!"

Liu Xie, who had just been happy because the person he hated the most in his previous life was dead, suddenly froze and asked in disbelief:
"Why did you say this, sir?"

Jia Xu took out a secret letter from his bosom and said:

"This is a letter from the spy I planted in Lu Bu's territory.

"He said that he did not see Lü Bu executing Cao Cao in Wancheng.

“It is true that Lu Bu has been staying indoors for a while, so there is a possibility that he has been seriously injured, but it is actually not high.

"After all, it would be difficult for just two ordinary assassins to seriously injure the world's most powerful general, even if they catch him by surprise."

Liu Xie took the secret letter from Jia Xu, and after reading it, he sat back on the dragon couch uncontrollably, his face full of disappointment:
"I can't believe Cao Cao is still alive... This is really..."

Seeing Liu Xie's shocked look, Jia Xu asked doubtfully:

"Your Majesty, I don't understand why you hate Cao Cao so much.

"It seems that Cao Cao...did not do anything disrespectful to the Han Dynasty, right?"

Liu Xie looked up at Jia Xu and replied coldly:
"Do I need a reason to hate someone?"

The sudden emanation of the emperor's majestic power made Jia Xu's heart tremble.

Normally, the emperor was very gentle and rarely showed such a stern expression.

It seems that Cao Cao has been included in the other party’s list of people to be killed!

Although he didn't understand the reason, Jia Xu could only follow the other party's suggestion and said:

"Of course not. But since Your Majesty wants to kill Cao Cao once and for all, I do have a way."

Liu Xie, who was a little angry just now, immediately put away his imperial dignity after hearing this and asked hurriedly:

"What good advice do you have, my dear?"

Jia Xu smiled faintly:
"Recently, our army returned the captured Wei County and Changshan County to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei sent a group of former subordinates of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

"Among them, Generals Le Jin and Li Dian were highly regarded by Cao Cao.

"Now you can release these two and take your majesty's handwritten order to persuade Cao Cao.

“Let’s just say that Lu Bu will definitely not let him go in the end because of the assassination incident last time.

“But Your Majesty is willing to accept and use him, and apologize for attacking him before, saying that everything was a conspiracy of Liu Bei’s army.

"As long as Cao Cao's concerns are eliminated, we can lure him into our territory.

"If Your Majesty wants to kill him then, won't it be easy?"

After hearing Jia Xu's plan, Liu Xie's eyes suddenly lit up!

But soon, he became worried again:
"But what if Cao Cao refuses to come? Wouldn't we have to lose two outstanding generals?"

Although Le Jin and Li Dian in this life have not yet emerged.

But Liu Xie, who had lived a new life, naturally knew that these two men were Cao Cao's capable generals. If he lost these two men, he would be reluctant.

Hearing Liu Xie's concerns, a hint of approval appeared in Jia Xu's eyes.

This young emperor is indeed not simple, as he can think so carefully even when dealing with people he hates.

He then added:

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense. We can send people to spread rumors in Lu Bu's territory that Lu Bu wants to kill Cao Cao to eliminate future troubles.

"Given Cao Cao's suspicious character, he would trust the Han Dynasty more than Lu Bu."

After hearing Jia Xu's words, Liu Xie felt relieved and nodded in agreement:

"Just do as you say! I will write a handwritten letter right now, pretending to apologize to Cao Cao.

“I believe that if I apologize in person, Cao Cao will definitely feel my sincerity.

"As for spreading rumors..."

Liu Xie looked at Chen Lin standing aside and said with a smile:
"Master Chen, I'll leave this matter to you to arrange."

Chen Lin followed Yuan Shao after He Jin's death.

Now that Yuan Shao had surrendered to Liu Bei, Liu Xie specifically asked for Chen Lin back and directly put him to important positions.

Because of the manifesto in the previous life in which the other party severely criticized Cao Cao, it made him secretly happy for a long time!
Liu Xie was naturally willing to use someone who cursed Cao Cao so harshly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Lin responded respectfully.

He didn't need to go there in person to spread the rumors.

As long as you prepare enough money and manpower, it will be very easy to sneak into Lu Bu's territory and spread the news.

When Liu Xie finished writing the imperial edict and handed it to Jia Xu, there was an obvious flash of murderous intent in his eyes!
"Cao Mengde, I will definitely repay you for the humiliation your family brought upon me in my previous life!

"But considering that your family gave me a good end, I can leave you a whole body!"

…………

Time has unknowingly come to June, and the hottest period has gradually passed.

Lujiang County, in a village east of Wancheng.

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties was lying in the shade of a big tree to enjoy the cool air.

At the same time, looking at a plump and beautiful peasant woman not far away, a fiery light flashed in his eyes.

He was none other than Cao Mengde who lived in seclusion here.

The village where he lives is naturally well developed because it is close to Wancheng.

For Cao Cao, an outsider, there were vacant houses in the village available for sale.

In particular, the villagers often saw some burly people coming to this person and giving him money and gifts.

They knew that this person must be from an extraordinary background.

Seeing the peasant woman winking at him, Cao Cao suddenly became excited and quickly pointed to his own house.

Seeing the peasant woman nod, Cao Cao was overjoyed. He immediately got up and walked towards his house, intending to wait for her in the house.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door.

Just when Cao Cao couldn't wait to open the door and was about to hug the person outside.

But suddenly he discovered that the person outside the door was a head taller than him, and his burly figure exuded an astonishing aura!
Cao Cao was so frightened that he paralyzed. When he looked carefully, he found that the person coming was Xiahou Dun.

Cao Cao finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked unhappily:
"Why is Yuan Rang here at this time?"

Xiahou Dun turned his head to look at the peasant woman who was scared away by him, and asked solemnly:

"My Lord, are you planning to stay in this broken village for the rest of your life?"
