The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 213
However, Cao Cao is different, because he has the same plan for Emperor Xian, and wants Emperor Xian to move to Chenliu, and he has discussed with Dong Cheng and has persuaded Dong Cheng, but now Dong Cheng is different from what he said, and Emperor Xian Instead of moving to Xiapi, it moved to Xiapi.

"Your Majesty, Xiapi is very far from Luoyang. It is quite hard to trek through mountains and rivers along the way, and you may be attacked by bandits and robbers. I do not recommend that Your Majesty go to Xiapi." Absolutely can't agree, because he clearly knows that once Emperor Xian goes to Xiapi, then Li Yuan will be able to coerce the emperor and order the princes, and all the heroes in the world will be restrained by Li Yuan.

"General Cao's words are wrong." Because Cao Cao has been named a general of the Chinese army, Li Yuan no longer calls him a school lieutenant. No matter how brave he is, the robbers and bandits will not dare to offend him, and there are towns to rest along the way, so the journey will not be too hard, General Cao need not worry about it."

"No, no, Luoyang is really dilapidated and unsuitable for living. Compared with Xiapi Chenliu, it is more suitable. First, it is very close to Luoyang. It takes less than ten days to get there from Luoyang to Chenliu. Second, Chenliu is stable and prosperous. , the common people live and work in peace and contentment, which is very suitable for His Majesty to live in." Cao Cao retorted.

"Although Chenliu is close, its prosperity and stability are definitely not as good as Xiapi's. Xiapi's tax revenue is higher than that of Yuzhou and Xuzhou. I can still keep my house closed at night, and I don’t pick up lost things on the road, and there are no bandits and robbers around me.”

In the past few years, under Li Yuan's vigorous development, Xiapi has been very prosperous, and the population is increasing. Because there are wars in many places other than Xuzhou and Yuzhou, many refugees have flocked in after hearing about Xuzhou's prosperity. Li Yuan Instead of driving them away, they arranged houses for them and distributed farmland.

Skilled refugees can work as carpenters, blacksmiths, and shipwrights; those with knowledge can teach in private schools or serve as officials under his command; Those who can speak well, those who have business experience can go into business, and those who have no money can ask the Mi family for support, and the Mi family will charge some interest after making money; those who can't do anything can become farmers.

Generally speaking, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will have a house to live in, food to eat, and a job, so countless people want to flood into Xiapi, so that the development of Xiapi will reach an unprecedented grand occasion, the only one that can be as high as Xiapi The next ones are probably only Yecheng in Hebei and Xiangyang in Jingzhou. Xiapi can achieve such a huge development in a short period of time because of Li Yuan's advanced insight.

After hearing the words, the officials of the court began to have a little yearning for Xiapi. After all, who doesn't want to live in a stable and prosperous city, and it is very rare to obtain a little stability in this war-torn era.

"Although Xiapi is good, but I, Chen Liu, also..."

Before Cao Cao finished speaking, Li Yuan interrupted him, "Xiapi is not only good, but also much better than Chen Liu. Now Xiapi has started to build a new palace for His Majesty to use. Just ask General Cao, can Chen Liu build it?" A palace for His Majesty?"

"I..." Cao Cao hesitated. In recent years, he has been fighting everywhere, and now he is still preparing to deal with Yuan Shao going south. How can he have the spare money to build a palace.

"Hahahaha, I think you should be gone, because Lieutenant Cao has more important things to do." Li Yuan said something, with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Okay, okay, the two lovers don't want to fight anymore, I have already decided to live in Xiapi." Hearing that there is a new palace in Xiapi, Emperor Xian has already made up his mind to go to Xiapi.

Seeing that Emperor Xian had made up his mind, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and could only swallow the depression in his heart. At the same time, he looked at Li Yuan angrily. From now on, they were no longer allies but enemies.

Li Yuan looked at Cao Cao without giving in. Even if he immediately became an enemy of Cao Cao, he would not be afraid. With his current strength, he was only stronger than Cao Cao, but if Cao Cao dared to play tricks, he would not mind attacking Cao Cao with Yuan Shao. What does it mean to not be able to look at each other from head to tail.

Yuan Shao watched Li Yuan and Cao Cao arguing over the relocation of Emperor Xian, and felt a little regretful. Others were fighting but he gave up. He couldn't help but wonder if Guo Tu's idea was wrong?
"Loves, we will set off in three days. If there is nothing to do, we will retreat." Emperor Xian was already a little impatient.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and there was nothing to say, so all the officials shouted "Long live, long live, long live" and retreated.

After retreating from the court, Li Yuan immediately went to find Chen Gong, and asked him to inform Zhang Ji to prepare to escort Emperor Xian to Xiapi, and then asked Zhao Yun to send someone to Xu County to inform Hua Xiong and others to prepare for the response, in case Li Jue And Guo Bang's soldiers and horses chased him down.

After Cao Cao retired from the imperial court, he was depressed. Guo Jia couldn't help asking: "My lord, I heard that you have been named a general of the Chinese army and concurrently served as the governor of Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Why are you still depressed?"

"It's all because of Li Yuan, who asked Emperor Xian to move to Xiapi." Cao Cao told the story of the court. He only took Guo Jia with him this time, and did not bring Xun Yu and Xun You, so he could only fight with Guo Jia. Jia to discuss.

"So that's the case. I thought the lord was depressed. It was really unexpected to be snatched by Li Yuan to Xiandi." Guo Jia obviously didn't expect this, but he was not as angry as Cao Cao.

"Does Fengxiao have a clever plan to get Emperor Xian back for me?" Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia was resourceful, so he might have a way.

Guo Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Emperor Xian has already said at the court that he would move to Xiapi, so it is unlikely that he would change his mind. In fact, if we think about it, we can also imagine that Li Yuan would do this. He is a smart man with many advisers under his command. Since we can think of coercing the emperor to make the princes, he should also think of it, it can only be said that I imagined things too simple, so I ignored him."

"Oh, it's all my fault. I underestimated Li Yuan, but what made me even more angry was that I saw Chen Gong appearing beside Li Yuan as a counselor." Cao Cao has seen Chen Gong these days.

"He took him away when he was in Puyang, but he just hid it from us." Guo Jia still remembers when Cao Cao asked Li Yuan if he had seen Chen Gong, and Li Yuan shook his head and denied it.

"From now on, I, Cao Cao, and Li Yuan are enemies!" Cao Cao became more and more angry as he thought about it.

"My lord, please don't be impulsive. Now the biggest enemy of our army is Yuan Shao, not Li Yuan. If we offend Li Yuan, maybe he will give up the agreement with us in a fit of anger and choose to join forces with Yuan Shao to attack us. , I will be hard to resist when the time comes." Guo Jia reminded.
