Great Wei Nengchen

Unexpectedly, Mr. Taiqing turned himself in without any trouble, this aroused Xiao Yi's interest, and he decided to meet this mysterious counselor, what kind of person is he? And why come forward to surrender?

"Treason Taiqing, pay homage to Master Sima!"

"Hehe, since you are rebellious, why dare you see me?"

"Rebellion has a treasure, and I'm here to offer it, in order not to die!"

"Oh, what a treasure?"

"Save your life, secure your safety, and take the best advice from the world!"

A moment later, under the escort of the soldiers, a person walked into the big tent, bowed and saluted, and answered fluently. It was Mr. Taiqing who offered a huge reward, that is, Yang Xiu!

It turned out that as soon as Xiao Yi appeared on the Julu battlefield, Yang Xiu knew that the rebellion had failed, so before the entire army collapsed, he rode his horse and fled!

He didn't escape too far, but lurked in the mountains near Julu. Using the principle of "darkness under the light", he escaped several searches by the army. After exploring the outside world and thinking carefully for a few days, he finally chose to surrender. Surrender!

For one thing, Xiao Yi set up a net to hunt down the remnants of the rebel army everywhere. Yang Xiu could hide for a while, but he couldn't hide for a lifetime.

Second, Yang Xiu's heart of revenge was not dead, and he failed to use Cao Zhi to rebel, so he wanted to encourage Xiao Yi. If the latter rebelled, the Cao family would undoubtedly be destroyed, wouldn't he just avenge his personal revenge?

And he also knew that Xiao Yi killed countless people, but only killed useless people. A top strategist like himself was very likely to survive, so he didn't hesitate to gamble, blocking his life would be his life!

"Hehe, you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and you speak boldly. Seeing that you still have some courage, let's try it out. If you succeed, you can toast a glass of wine. If you fail, you can get this thing!"

While talking, Xiao Yi poured a glass of fine wine and put it on the handsome table, then pulled out the Tanlang knife and put it beside the fine wine, one for prosperity and wealth, the other for murder!

Since ancient times, those who want to achieve great things must gather talents from all over the world for their own use, regardless of their origins, regardless of their talents, or even recruiting and accepting traitors!

For example, Xiaobin, Cao Xing, Gao Shun, Jiang Qi, Zhang Yan, Huang Zhong, Huang Xu, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Wenpin... Hundreds of generals and schools, big and small, were all conquered on the battlefield.

Now they have all become Xiao Yi's confidantes, going through fire and water, swearing to follow them to the death, as for the recruited soldiers, there are countless, so Xiao Yi also has the heart to accept this Mr. Taiqing!

Jia Xu is getting old and can hardly bear the heavy responsibility of being a mastermind.

Feng Ji's talent is slightly insufficient, and his character has some flaws, so he can only be a second-rate counselor!

Li Ru did too many evils, so he couldn't entrust big things. The rest, like Jiang Gan, Mi Heng, Shi Tao, Meng Jian, Zhuge Jun, etc., were all poor-faced scholars with no ability to seek power or seek power!

Guo Yi is a top-notch talent, and there is absolutely no problem with his loyalty, but now is the time to seize power, and the mastermind must be black-bellied and ruthless, and his methods are vicious. Killing people is like drinking white water!

Xiao Yi has cultivated his brother-in-law for many years, treating him as a prime minister and using him to govern the country. He does not want him to become black, that is not good for his brother-in-law, and it is also not good for the descendants of the Xiao family. !

Ever since, Xiao Yi fell in love with Mr. Taiqing. The character, ability, and strategy of the other party were vividly displayed during the rebellion, but he was a good planner. Help!

However, it is necessary to carefully examine the other party's human nature. If you can use it, treat it favorably, and if you don't use it, kill it, so as not to be used by others and cause countless disasters in the future!

"Today's speech is too big, please retreat to the left and right, so as not to let it leak out!"

"Hehe, my confidants are all on the left and right. Even if it is a matter of killing the king, you can speak it out to the face. Why do you need to avoid it!"

"Hehe, Da Sima's method of winning people's hearts is probably not inferior to Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. I admire, sincerely admire!"

Since ancient times, those who discussed important matters always know as little as possible, and don't pass it on to their parents, and don't pass it on to their wives and children, so as not to leak it out and cause a catastrophe!

Xiao Yi did the opposite, let alone the generals, even the ordinary soldiers didn't hide it. How bold and trusting is this?

"I am willing to die for Master Sima!"

"I am willing to die for Master Sima!"

There must be rewards for the sacrifices. Hundreds of generals and soldiers in the tent all burst into tears and knelt down to swear allegiance. Now even if they are really allowed to rush into the palace and kill the emperor with one knife, no one will shake their heads and refuse!

However, Yang Xiu's heart tightened, and a lot of cold sweat oozes from his back. He didn't expect the scheming methods of killing the gods to be worse than that of a traitor. He really needs to be more careful.

Chapter 1617 Two stories!

"In addition to studying classics and history, I like to read some martial arts novels. One of the stories is very interesting. Today, I will tell Master Sima:

It is said that there are disputes in the rivers and lakes, fighting constantly, countless masters rise recklessly, all want to compete for the position of leader, and become the supreme commanding the world. Among them is a swordsman who occasionally gets a dragon-slaying sword, which is extremely sharp to cut gold and jade!

Holding this dragon-slaying sword, the swordsman defeated countless masters in a row, and finally became the supreme in the world. In the process of fighting, the sword drank human blood, and became more and more magical, and even had its own thoughts!

Time goes by, time flies, the swordsman is getting old slowly, and he can no longer wield the precious sword. Instead, he is more and more afraid of it, and one day he will eat him back, but he is willing to give it up, because he has this dragon sword , he can command the world!

Finally one day, the swordsman couldn't hold on any longer, and wanted to pass the sword to his son, so that he could continue to be the supreme martial artist, but he was worried that his son's skill was not enough to control the dragon sword, so he carefully configured a set. The scabbard suppressed the sharpness of the precious sword, and then let go and went west.

But the treasured sword is too sharp, even if equipped with a scabbard, it is still not something that a small swordsman can control, and in addition to the defeat of various masters, the use of the treasured sword is getting less and less, and the threat is getting bigger..."

Yang Xiu is indeed extremely smart, and in the name of telling martial arts stories, it is a metaphor for the general trend of the world. The old swordsman and the young swordsman are Cao Cao, Cao Pi and his son, and the dragon-slaying sword is naturally Xiao Yi, and the metaphor is very appropriate!

It's a pity that he didn't know that this set of martial arts stories about the "Dragon Slaying Sword" was written by the novelist - Viscount Bai, and the person who provided inspiration for it was Xiao Yi who was sitting in front of him!

The supreme martial artist, swordsman and dragon slaying, commanding the world, no one dares not to obey... Saying these things in front of Xiao Yi is really like holding a big ax in front of Lu Ban, or selling articles in front of Confucius.

Yang Xiu didn't know the inside story, seeing Xiao Yi listening with gusto, he immediately felt confident, and continued talking...

"Seeing that the precious sword is difficult to control and there is a danger of backlash, the little swordsman can't sleep or eat, so he came up with a way to ask a few blacksmiths to help him melt the precious sword and recast it into an incense burner!

Knowing this, Tulong Baodao couldn't help but fell into distress, and had two different choices: one was to focus on old feelings, destroy his edge, and turn it into an incense burner, and enjoy incense and sacrifices from now on, but it also became a useless thing !

Moreover, the fate of the censer is completely determined by the owner. If you respect it, you will be on top of it, and you will sacrifice with your ancestors;

The second is not willing to become a waste, break free from the shackles, and bite back against its owner. Although it will leave the infamy of "murderous knife", it can transform into a psychic form, from a simple precious knife to a real knife holder!

Since then, he has made great achievements and passed on this supreme glory to his descendants.

Da Sima has the wisdom of heaven and man, and he will be able to comprehend the deep meaning in the story. The key is to make a decision quickly, otherwise he will miss the great opportunity, and it will be too late to regret it! "

After the story was told, Yang Xiu's confidence soared to ninety-nine percent, because from ancient times to the present, there are only two ways for a minister to reach Xiao Yi's position: one is to release his military power and live in seclusion in the forest, and never Ask about major events in the world!

The second is to go one step further, replace it, and truly become the co-lord of the world!

Comparing the two, the former road is easy and convenient, and can win the admiration of later generations. The Duke of Zhou is the best example. He first assisted King Wu to defeat Zhou, and then took the responsibility of King Cheng. I retreated to Fengdi for the elderly, and was buried next to King Wen's tomb after his death. There was almost no time in his life!

Some even commented on the Duke of Zhou: "Before Confucius, after the Yellow Emperor, the Duke of Zhou was the only one who had a great relationship with China." What an honor this is!

On the contrary, the latter path is full of dangers, and will be smashed to pieces at every turn. Wang Mang is a typical character, who usurped the Han Dynasty, established a new dynasty, subjugated the country in eight years, and died in a different place!

Later generations compiled history books. Although Wang Mang was emperor for eight years, he was not included in this annals, but belonged to biographies, which is the greatest irony!

But what is interesting is that, looking through the history, there are only a few people who take the former road, and those who take the second road are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River. Why do people choose the easy and the difficult? The answer is only two words: imperial power!

The taste of the supreme imperial power is incomparably alluring, ten million times better than money, beauties, and fine wines. Those who have never tried it will risk their lives to fight for it. Those who have tasted it will never let it go.

Xiao Yi is also a body of flesh and blood, and he also has the seven emotions and six desires. Now that the imperial power is close at hand, can he endure this huge temptation?

As long as he can't bear it, Xiao Yi will definitely embark on the road of seizing power, and what Yang Xiu wants to do is to push hard, make this road more cruel and bloody, and use this dragon-slaying sword to repay himself The vengeance of destroying the family!
