Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 721 Cao Cao's Way

It wasn't until Liu Xie pressed the sword on his neck that Wang Lang was stimulated by death, and finally he became enlightened and understood everything: everything was just a game.

When was Yang Biao a fool?This old man who grew up in the family of "four generations and four fathers" and has experienced too many storms is still standing tall.How could he stumble under such a small omission?Does he not even know the common sense that the official documents of the Han Dynasty should not be leaked lightly when he recorded the affairs of the minister?

And that Zhong Yao, who didn't show up early, didn't show up late, and only appeared when Man Chong came to tell him that he was in a trap, isn't it too coincidental?

Especially the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he had never been to Shangshutai for half a month.But at the critical moment, he was able to appear with a sword in his hand. Doesn't that explain everything?
However, even knowing that he was cheated.Wang Lang was also convincing to lose, and he was a mixed figure in the political field. His conspiracy was actually similar to games or gambling: willing to gamble and admit defeat is the quality that a politician should have.After all, Wang Lang also knew that no matter how hard he struggled, the result would only be miserable.

First of all, he will be regarded by the world as a thief who framed the Yang family, and he will be cast aside by the world; second, he is newly attached to Cao Cao, and even if he can return, he may have a grudge with Cao Cao; finally, he will not follow Liu Xie , then Liu Xie will not let such a careful bureau go to waste, and will definitely lock him up for a long time.

Now that the situation in the world is gradually becoming clearer, Wang Lang naturally knows that the Han Dynasty can function freely without him.He can indeed keep that pathetic waste of loyalty, but he is not such a pedantic person after all.And when he wanted to show his ambition again, there was no room for him to show it. At that time, wouldn't he regret the choice of staying in the house at this time, and then regret the original?
Therefore, it is not a shame to admit defeat if you lose.What's more, being deceived by the emperor of the Han Dynasty with such a trick, at least it shows that the emperor of the Han Dynasty cares about him very much.

But the matter cannot be settled so easily after all, and Wang Lang will not throw away his integrity immediately.When Liu Xie patted him on the shoulder, he frowned, and suddenly bowed down in front of Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, I came to Chang'an this time to ask for help under the order of General Cao. Now the mission has not been fulfilled." , and the minister turned to the Han Dynasty, it was not the actions of a gentleman. I have the courage to implore your majesty to still regard me as the envoy of General Cao. After this matter of asking for help is over, I am willing to accept your majesty's thunder and wrath, and repay the Han Dynasty with all my heart."

As soon as these words came out, Shangshutai, which suddenly warmed up the atmosphere, suddenly became tense again.You know, although Wang Lang's request is extremely in line with the norms of this era, to Liu Xie, it is no less than a face-to-face slap.In particular, Liu Xie is very detached, moody and angry.After taking power, he doesn't like anyone to oppose him.If Liu Xie was really angry for a while, then Wang Lang would undoubtedly bring disaster on himself.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Liu Xie's handsome face could not help but flash a trace of anger.The Yitian sword in his hand was placed on Wang Lang's neck again, and he shouted angrily: "Wang Jingxing, do you really think I dare not kill you?!"

"The matter of being loyal to others should have a beginning and an end. Even if you die, you will have no regrets." Wang Lang bowed deeply. This time, he no longer felt anxious or afraid of death.Yes, it's just calm.

Zhong Yao saw Liu Xie's face was extremely unsightly, and couldn't bear the suffering of people with lofty ideals such as Wang Lang, so he couldn't help but stepped forward to bow down and beg for mercy, "Your Majesty..." But just after saying this, Zhong Yao had already seen Liu Xie's face At the corners of the eyes on the angry face, a smile appeared unconsciously.Zhong Yao, who had been with Liu Xie for a long time, didn't know that he was confused by Liu Xie's acting skills. He immediately shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, don't scare Wang Qing. Now that Guandu is in flames, I can't waste my time here."

Seeing that his tricks were exposed by Zhong Yao, Liu Xie had no choice but to withdraw his sharp sword, and pretended to say: "Wang Qing really deserves to be a loyal man. This kind of character is the talent I want in my heart. Wang Qing's request , I agree with it."

After finishing speaking, Liu Xie walked towards Shangshutai, and said to Wang Lang and Man Chong: "Come on, let me see what Cao Mengde has planned again."

Soon, the civil and military officials of the Han court in Shangshu Taizhong gathered together.In the middle, Wang Lang and Man Chong had discussed in advance. Thanks to Man Chong who witnessed everything with his own eyes, he trusted Wang Lang very much, and because Wang Lang was the first envoy and was familiar with the Han Dynasty, Wang Lang was the chief envoy. He also informed Wang Lang of his purpose, and willingly became the deputy envoy.

After everyone was seated, Liu Xie continued to talk clichédly: "Wang Qing, the matter of Cao Mengde concerns the whole world, and I have not yet lost the crown. Such important matters need to be discussed with the ministers before they can be decided."

Wang Lang really didn't want to slander Liu Xie at this time: Your Majesty, can you show some face anyway?What you said, people who fooled Man Chong didn't believe it, not to mention that I have been in Chang'an for half a month, don't you know that you are a man of all promises and arbitrariness in the court?
But Liu Xie is so brazen, Wang Lang here has something to ask for, so naturally he can only pinch his nose and admit it.Fortunately, Wang Lang seemed to have a countermeasure for this. After hearing Liu Xie's words, he showed a slight smile: "Your Majesty misunderstood, this time Boning came here not to ask for help. I When I know the reason why the Son of Heaven must not move lightly, not to mention Guo Yuan's rebellion in the land of Three Rivers, even if His Majesty wants to send troops, he has to wait until those traitors are wiped out before he can take any action."

Hearing Wang Lang's words of retreating to advance, Liu Xie felt a 'thump' in his heart.After traveling to this time and space, Liu Xie didn't dare to say that the ancients were pedantic and easy to bully.In fact, the biggest advantage of modern people traveling through ancient times is the huge amount of knowledge and the novel way of thinking.In addition, it is extremely difficult to beat the ancients in specific events.

In this era, it is true that 80.00% of the people are illiterate, but there are only a few people who are really knowledgeable, except for those who are too stupid to read and can't get out.The remaining people who can leave their names in history are all masters who have really read the book thoroughly, and they are very flexible in speaking and seeing things.

At this moment, Wang Lang, although his words were high-sounding, but if there were no countermeasures, Liu Xie would not believe that Wang Lang would have given up if he was beaten to death.

Sure enough, after Wang Lang just said a word, Liu Xie was frozen in ice and snow for a moment, and he forgot to even blink when he sat on the main seat: "Your Majesty, Bo Ning came here this time to present General Cao. daughter enters the palace..."

Damn history!

There is no way to escape this kind of trouble!
At this moment, Liu Xie was like a thunderbolt, and when his brain was so dazed that there was a stick of incense, he said foolishly like sleepwalking: "Cao Cao... how many daughters does he plan to sacrifice?"

As soon as Wang Lang heard this, his expression changed: Why, one is not enough?
"Okay, that's great! Don't give me three at once, I don't want to die young!" After listening to Wang Lang's respectful answer, Liu Xie stood up like a monkey eating chili peppers. Turn around.When I was young, I finally seemed to think of something, and I couldn't help but ask again: "This kind of god damn... No, I mean such a good thing, who proposed it?"

Wang Lang and Man Chong looked at each other, neither knowing what Liu Xie meant.In the end, Man Chong stepped forward and replied, "It was mentioned by General Cao Shi Xunyu."

As soon as these words reached Liu Xie's ears, Liu Xie was filled with grief and indignation.Afterwards, without waiting for everyone to be present, he quickly walked into a study that dealt with secret rooms.Immediately afterwards, all the civil and military personnel in the stage heard a roar of grief and indignation from inside, and the movement of the case books being overturned and smashed.

Such actions frightened everyone present.Just as the generals were looking at Lu Bu and urging him to take a look inside, Liu Xie came out with a relaxed face, as if he had let go of his anger, and said to Wang Lang with a smile on his face: "Wang Qing, you may I don’t know, you did something that you regret for the rest of your life.”

Stared at by Liu Xie's half-smiling eyes, and listening to Liu Xie's hidden words, Wang Lang's heart began to beat like a drum in an instant.From the fact that Liu Xie tried every means to deceive him, he could see that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was not a master who followed the rules and swallowed his anger.

However, at this time, he was still Cao Cao's envoy after all, and what he was thinking about was his "loyalty".Can't help mustering up his courage, he stepped forward and questioned: "Does Your Majesty want to refuse General Cao's daughter to enter the palace?"

"How is it possible!" Liu Xie smiled, gritted his teeth: "I am looking forward to such a beautiful thing, but I can't wait for it, so how can I refuse?" After finishing speaking, Liu Xie turned to look at Man Chong again, The tone was strange: "I'm full of love and affection for Bo Ning, right? Go back and tell Cao Mengde that I have received this friendship. After dealing with Guo Yuan's traitors, the Han Dynasty will definitely give him a satisfactory assist!"

"In this way, I will not disgrace my mission, and I can return to Yanzhou to prepare with peace of mind." Man Chong smiled, and then looked at Wang Lang, his eyes were full of pity.

Sure enough, before Man Chong took a few steps out of the Shangshutai, he heard Liu Xie's roar from the Shangshutai: "Wang Lang, you just stay at the Shangshutai honestly and handle all the government affairs! And that Xun Yu, I will not let him go!"
