Cao Cao obviously didn't expect Lu Bu to solicit him so bluntly, and he simply didn't have the slightest bit of defense.He was stunned for a while, and then said half-jokingly: "Da Sima, your reputation is a 'big name' among the aristocratic family. I, Cao Mengde, have a small reputation, so it's better not to be criticized by people with you."
Faced with Cao Cao's teasing, Lu Bu was not displeased at all, and asked without giving up, "Are you rejecting it?"
Cao Cao didn't continue to dwell on this issue. He changed the subject and said slowly: "Da Sima, the world said that you will be the second Dong Zhuo, with power and merit. Now you have a name, gold, silver and money." There is no shortage, why not return the power to the emperor, and then be a good assistant, and be a pillar of the country and a virtuous minister whose name will last forever, wouldn't it be beautiful?"
Not a bad idea.
But to actually do it, there is no possibility at all.
"Meng De, you became an official earlier than me. Don't you know the shady methods in the court?"
Lu Bu asked Cao Cao back, and then said it very frankly, without any shyness: "It is unlikely that the power will belong to the emperor. Offended officials and families, how could they allow me to live in this world?"
"I raise a big family, and a group of brothers who have lived through life and death. In official terms, they are my Lu Bu's henchmen. Once I collapse, they will all have to follow the family and punish the family."
Lu Bu spoke very normally, without any emotion or anger.
After spending a long time in the court, many things can naturally be understood.
A jug of wine was quickly drunk.
Cao Cao ordered to go down and ordered someone to bring another pot to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu poured himself a full bottle, and when he was about to drink, his ears moved suddenly, and he heard many rustling footsteps outside the tent, which seemed to have surrounded the military tent.
The wine glass paused in the air, then Lu Bu raised his head and drank it down in one gulp.
"My lord, it's not suitable to stay here for long." Chen Wei was also alert, bent over and whispered in Lu Bu's ear.
Lu Bu waved his hands, looked at Cao Cao, and asked with a bit of drunkenness: "Meng Deke still remembers the time when we defeated Yang Di?"
Cao Cao nodded, of course he remembered.
"That night, I sat next to you on the grass. At that time I asked you, if you caught me one day in the future, would you kill me? Who can be captured, does Meng De remember?" Lu Bu recalled the scene back then.
Cao Cao nodded again. Many things that happened more than ten years ago have been forgotten, but that night is always vivid in his mind.
Boom!
There was a sudden thunder in the sky outside the tent without warning, and the wine bottle in Cao Cao's hand shook involuntarily, causing slight ripples.
This muffled thunder seemed to bring the two back to more than ten years ago.
"At that time, you were talking about the general trend of the world with me, and you asked me if I knew the changes of the dragon? I didn't know. Meng Deke still remembers how he answered me back then?"
"The dragon can be big or small, it can rise or hide; the big one can blow clouds and mist, the small one can hide its shape; the high one can fly between the universe, and the hidden one can hide in the waves. The spring is deep now, and the dragon changes with time. , It’s like a man who achieves his ambition and travels across the world. The dragon is a thing, comparable to the heroes of the world.”
Cao Cao's answer was exactly the same as back then.
"What is a hero?" Lu Bu asked again.
"Heroic husbands have great ambitions, have good plans, have the opportunity to hide the universe, and those who have the ambitions of the world." Cao Cao's small eyes lit up with starlight, and his eyes became sharp.
"At that time, Meng De asked me, I know that the hero of the world, but now Bu has the answer. I don't know if it is too late to answer now?"
"Great Sima, please speak, Cao will listen with all ears."
After speaking, Cao Cao stopped all movements in his hands, sat upright, and listened attentively.
"There is a man whose name originated from the border. He broke the moth thief, settled Xiliang, and set Liaodong. Yu Huanyu!
Can this person be a hero? "
The majestic voice echoed in the tent.
Cao Cao was shocked. He never expected that Lu Bu would give such an answer.
His eyes moved over, and Lu Bu also looked over at the same time.
Four eyes facing each other.
Cao Cao's small eyes were full of astonishment, but Lu Bu's gaze was extremely firm. The face known as the "face of a tiger" was full of domineering, full of ambition and great ambition.
Even Chen Wei, who was behind him, couldn't restrain his excitement. How lucky to be able to follow such a hero!
"This person is a hero!"
Cao Cao looked back and sighed, feeling like a hero short of breath for the first time.
In the past, no matter how powerful Lu Bu was, Cao Cao felt that he could beat him.
But now, Lu Bu has become more and more powerful, so that he completely suppressed himself.
Not in force, but in state of mind.
Cao Cao even felt that his methods were too base and not bright enough.
Can……
This is war.
If Lu Bu didn't die, he would be the one who fell.
Especially after getting to know Lu Bu again today, Cao Cao was even more determined that he would never let Lu Bu leave alive.
Pretty much everything that should be said has been said.
I also drank two jugs of wine.
Cao Cao got up and apologized slightly: "Sima, sit here for a while, let me be a little anxious, and go back as soon as I go."
Cao Cao avoided Lu Bu and walked out of the tent along the right hand side.
Lu Bu also stood up now, blocked Cao Cao's way, and said with a drunken smile: "Meng De, I have been delayed here, it's time to go back."
As he spoke, Lu Bu reached out to catch Cao Cao.
Seeing this, Dian Wei certainly wouldn't let the lord fall into Lu Bu's clutches again. With a big stride, his huge body burst into a powerful momentum, and he swung his fist with his right hand, wanting to strike first.
Seeing this, Lu Bu raised his eyebrows slantingly, instead of retreating he advanced, and also punched out.
boom!
The moment the two fists touched, a loud muffled sound erupted.
The two who punched each took half a step back, and it was considered a tie.
"Chen Wei, take down Cao Cao!"
