Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

To put it bluntly, now Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie had to bow his head under the eaves.Whether Cao Cao is polite to him or not is entirely up to Cao Cao himself subjectively.Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, served fish and meat, and Cao Cao served Daozu.As long as Cao Cao wanted an official position, he actually couldn't tolerate Cao Cao's refusal.

Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, his expression did not reveal any abnormalities, and he said lightly, "Feng Xiao will make arrangements."

To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is for intimidation and coercion. If this kind of behavior is spread, it is not easy to say.So this matter, Cao Cao can't go, he has to let his men go.

Guo Jia already had a plan in mind at this time, and asked his subordinates to pretend to be dissatisfied and come and go as important officials for Cao Cao.In this way, the goal was achieved, and the infamy of threatening the emperor was borne by the people below.

Guo Jia had a plan in mind, but what kind of official he wanted and who would get it were all things that had to be carefully considered.The person who wants to be an official must be a seemingly simple-minded warrior, and this person must have a delicate mind.After all, if you can't say a word when you want to be an official, and you beat Han Xiandi Liu Xie, that would be bad.

After much deliberation, Guo Jiasi finally decided to ask Cao Cao for the post of prime minister.Those who want to be officials let Brother Xiahou go.

The next day, the sky brightened.

Guo Jialing's subordinates called Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun brothers.Instructed his brother Yu Xiahou about his plan, so that the two of them knew what they were planning.

"The two generals Xiahou, this matter is related to the important affairs of the lord, there must be no accidents." Guo Jia warned.

Among Cao Cao's subordinates, apart from Cao Ren, the Xiahou brothers were the safest in handling affairs.However, Cao Ren is Cao Cao's cousin.If Cao Ren went to threaten and intimidate Han Xiandi Liu Xie, it would inevitably be reflected on Cao Cao.

Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun clasped their fists together and shouted in unison: "Military Master, don't worry about leaving this matter to our brothers."

The Xiahou family and the Cao family were originally a family, and the Xiahou brothers were also Cao Cao's generals.There is absolutely no doubt about Cao Cao's loyalty, and the mere infamy is not worth mentioning to the two of them.

After the Xiahou brothers left Guo Jia's mansion, they immediately recruited hundreds of soldiers from the army.These soldiers were all personally selected by Xiahoudun. In short, all of them were big and three thick, and all of them were vicious.

The purpose of the Xiahou brothers this time is to bluff Han Xiandi Liu Xie, and these soldiers are going to pull out to support the scene.It doesn't matter whether they can fight or not, anyway, they can't really do anything to Han Xiandi Liu Xie.Therefore, for these soldiers, there is only one requirement, and that is to be scary long.

The two brothers Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun went straight to the residence of Han Xiandi Liu Xie with hundreds of soldiers who looked like Shura in the underworld.

Since Liu Xie called Xudu, his life has been quite leisurely.Although he still didn't have any rights, Cao Cao was still polite to him. It can be said that he gave him what he wanted, and he didn't treat him badly.

Liu Xie lived in the mansion all day long, listening to music and watching dances, and his life was quite enjoyable.Anyway, he didn't expect Cao Cao to give him power, so why not enjoy it.Liu Xie now wants to understand, as long as Cao Cao doesn't kill him, then he won't mess around.As the saying goes, what life looks like, since you can't resist it, you can only enjoy it obediently.

Anyway, Liu Xie was reluctant to think about Shu, but it was over. Yang Biao and others were busy outside all day these days, trying to contact some officials loyal to the Han Dynasty and win some power for Han Xiandi Liu Xie.

No, at dawn today, Liu Xie started listening to music and watching dances as usual.

In the main hall, there were beautiful singers dancing around Liu Xie.Liu Xie knew in his heart that the more pleasure-seeking he behaved now, the safer he would be.

"Report to Your Majesty, the two generals Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan outside the door are asking to see you." At this moment, a young eunuch stumbled outside the door.

Liu Xie thought to himself, why did Cao Cao's subordinates come to see him? He just wanted the little eunuch Xuan to come to see him. At this time, Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan had already led the army into the hall.

A group of soldiers rushed into the main hall, scaring the singing girl who was dancing in the main hall so that she was out of her wits and screamed.

Unannounced, the two brothers Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun gave Han Xiandi Liu Xie a disarm.

"Go down, you guys go down first." Liu Xie waved his hand to disperse the panicked singers.

"You two lovers, what's the matter with you?" Liu Xie's face turned pale with fright, and he asked strong and calm.

Liu Xie looked at the two rows of menacing soldiers, and then at the leaders Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan brothers.I thought, could it be that Cao Ahwan wanted my life.

"Your Majesty, I won't kneel when I'm with Bingjia." Brother Xiahou bowed his hands towards Liu Xie, showing no respect at all.

At this time, how dare Liu Xie make them kneel.Liu Xie thought to himself, as long as I don't kill me, I'll give you two knocks.

"No need to be too polite, no need to be too polite, just say what the two lovers want." Liu Xie said hastily.

After the Xiahou brothers looked at each other, Xiahouyuan said: "Your Majesty, you have been here for more than a month. However, Cao Gong's reward has not come down. The lowly brother has already complained. Today, I will wait for the two brothers to represent you. Cao's hundreds of thousands of brothers, come to ask for the title of Duke Cao."

Hearing what the two brothers said, Liu Xie thought, didn't he seal the king of Wei?Why are you still not satisfied? Come on, if you have too many lice, you won't itch, and if you have too many debts, you won't worry.Whatever you want, I will seal it.

"I don't know the two generals, how do you think Duke Cao should be rewarded?" Liu Xie asked.

Xiahou Dun arched his hands and said: "The brothers in the army agree that it is quite appropriate to make Duke Cao a prime minister."

"Okay, I'll be the Prime Minister." As soon as Xiahoudun finished speaking, Liu Xie agreed.

Liu Xie responded so readily, but it made the two brothers a little confused?This seems a little too simple.

Chapter 168 Yuan Shu Becomes King

As soon as the voice fell here, Liu Xie began to write the imperial edict.In just a moment, the imperial decree was written, and Liu Xie ordered the little eunuch beside him to hand over the imperial decree to Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun brothers.

"You two lovers, is there anything else?" Liu Xie continued to ask.

"No more, no more." Brothers Xia Houyuan and Xiahou Dun said in unison.

At this time, the two of them were still a little confused.Why do they feel that Liu Xie is more anxious than them, as if they are afraid that they will go back on their word.

"Could it be that the official position is getting smaller?" Brother Xiahou thought so.

But, then again, the prime minister seems to be the biggest official position of a big man, so how big can it be in the big man.

Although the two brothers were a little puzzled, all in all, the task Guo Jia entrusted to the two brothers was successfully completed.Finally, they lived up to the great trust of the military division, and the two of them did not have any conflicts with Liu Xie.

Yanzhou, Xudu, Cao Cao's mansion.

"My lord, my lord, it's done, the imperial decree is here." With a shout full of joy, Brother Xiahou strode into the hall holding the imperial decree.

In the hall, Cao Cao was discussing something with his confidants, officials and military generals. Now that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is in his hands, they can be regarded as taking the initiative.

Hearing Xia Houyuan's voice, Cao Cao couldn't help but tremble, and his heart was also happy.

Prime Minister, from today onwards, Cao Cao is the prime minister of this big man.That is, a truly extremely human minister.

In the time it takes to speak, Brother Xiahou has already walked in front of Cao Cao holding the imperial decree.Cao Cao rubbed his hands, and grabbed the imperial decree with excitement.

Now, Xiahou Dun is holding the imperial decree.Seeing Cao Cao coming to get the imperial decree, he also handed over the imperial decree thoughtfully.Why did Xiahoudun hand it down? He is tall and Cao Cao is short. If he doesn't hand it down, then Cao Cao can't take it on his toes.

Cao Cao took the imperial decree, and he read the imperial decree over and over again, over and over again.He, Cao Cao, finally became the prime minister, and this was the first time for the Cao family.

"Go, tell the world about this." After a long time, Cao Cao said to the left and right.

In about a dozen days, the document that Cao Cao was named prime minister by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty spread throughout the big and small counties of the Han Dynasty. Now the people of the whole Han Dynasty have to call Cao Cao when they mention the word Cao Cao.

Cao Cao has been named prime minister. This news is nothing to some small forces.After all, Han Xiandi Liu Xie is in the hands of others now. Isn't it a daily operation to seal a prime minister?

However, there are a few people who are at a loss at this time.These people were none other than Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian and others who were crowned kings.

Now Hanxian Emperor Liu Xie fell into the hands of Cao Cao, and the person who sent them the imperial edict also told them that it was Wei Wang Cao Cao who asked His Majesty to make them kings.But now, it is obvious that he has been crowned king, so why did Cao Cao seal himself as prime minister again.

This operation really made Yuan Shao, Sun Jian and others a little confused.However, these people are not restless people.Before they figured out what was going on, they were all clutching the royal decree in their hands, keeping it secret.

But, some people can hold their breath, and some people can't hold it.Who is the person who can't hold his breath? It is Yuan Shu from Nanyang.

Nanyang, Yuan Shu's mansion.

"Well, he's a fool. He's going to join us in the army. He deliberately issued this imperial decree to become a king, and then bet that we will keep it secret. In the end, he came up with this move and made himself a prime minister. In order to suppress us He is really deliberate to hide from Cao Cao." After Yuan Shu heard the news that Cao Cao was made prime minister, he was furious.

At this time, in Yuan Shu's heart, Cao Cao deliberately used the holy decree to confer kings on their kings.You know, since the great Han emperor Liu Bang, there has been an ancestral precept that no one with the surname Liu can not be crowned king. Cao Cao is blocking their mouths with the title of king.Anyway, the seal is sealed, whether you dare to admit it is up to you.Since you don't dare to admit it, then he, Cao, is making himself a prime minister without hiding it.

From Yuan Shu's point of view, even though Cao is not tall, this method is really high.No wonder you, Cao, can't hide it from you, your feelings are all under your control.

Yuan Shu has always looked down on Cao Cao. He Yuan Shu is the fourth generation and third prince, and he is a direct descendant.Although Cao Cao's father also served as a Taiwei, he bought it, and Cao Cao was an eunuch.Yuan Shu believes that Cao Cao's identity is far from being equal to him.

Yuan Shu thinks very highly of himself, not to mention Cao Cao, even his elder brother Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is not too angry.From Yuan Shu's point of view, although they are all four generations and three princes, he is a descendant and Yuan Shao is a concubine.How can this concubine be compared with the one who was born.

It was also because of this that when Yuan Shu heard that Cao Cao had been made prime minister, seven of them were dissatisfied and eight were unhappy.Jealousy can make people lose their minds, and Yuan Shu has lost his mind at this moment.

Yuan Shu was unwilling to let Cao Cao dominate, but the prime minister was already considered the highest official, and he wanted to suppress Cao Cao in turn.Then you can only become king according to the imperial decree.

Let's put it this way, jealousy has already made Yuan Shu lose his mind.Although his counselors, Yan Xiang and Yang Hong, repeatedly persuaded him, Yuan Shu still insisted on becoming king.

In Yuan Shu's hands, there were two or three big cats and kittens, and there were no capable people. Now Yuan Shu insisted on going his own way to become king.Everyone saw that after a few times of persuasion, there was no effect, so no one was persuading.

Being king is not a trivial matter, you have to choose a good day and auspicious day for the ceremony of becoming king, and you have to reform the prince and so on.More than a month has passed for Yuan Shu's preparation.

195 AD, March 6.

Today is an extremely important day for the big man. Yuan Shu of Nanyang became the king, known as the king of Qi.After Yuan Shu became king, he rewarded officials a lot.What kind of general, left and right prime ministers, Taiwei, Taifu, etc. There are countless rewards.

Yuan Shu became the king. It can be said that this was the last straw that overwhelmed the camel of the big man. The Han Dynasty was really in danger.

The fact that Yuan Shu became king naturally made it known to the world, and the news spread to Xudu not long after.

Xu Du, the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Since Cao Cao became the prime minister, the original Cao mansion has become the prime minister's mansion.

"My lord, my lord, something is wrong, something is wrong." Guo Jia trotted in from outside in a panic.

Guo Jia has worked under Cao Cao for many years, but Cao Cao has never seen Guo Jia like this, what is it that can make Guo Jia panic like this.

"Fengxiao, what's the matter?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.

At this time, Guo Jia's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. He looked at Cao Cao and said with a serious face: "Yuan Shu has become king, named King Qi, and has the right to establish a government and establish teeth."

"What?" Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this.

Being king is no small matter.Once the king is conferred, he has the right to open the government and establish the teeth. To put it bluntly, the right to open the government and establish the teeth is to be able to freely confer officials.You know, even if Cao Cao wants to canonize an official now, he has to ask Liu Xie, a tool person, for an order.

Cao Cao's heart was a little stuffy at this time, and he felt like he was carrying something behind him, which made him a little out of breath.

Chapter 169 Cao Cao is a bit confused

Nanyang Yuan Shu has become king, this is like a muffled thunder on the flat ground to the warlords of the Han Dynasty.He resounded throughout the world, startling all the warlords in the world.

You must know that among the warlords of the Han Dynasty, it is not only Yuan Shu who has the imperial decree in their hands, but seven or eight people have the imperial decree in their hands.

If there is the first one who stands up uncontrollably, there will be a second one, and a third one. After all, no one wants to be short of others for no reason.

The reason why no one stands up now is nothing more than waiting and watching.As the saying goes, shoot the first bird, they want to see what will happen to Yuan Shu, the first person to stand up and become king.

Who wouldn't want to be called lonely, I am afraid that there is no man in this world who can resist the charm of being king.

Xuzhou, Yunlong Hall.

Li Chen looked at Wu Wenwu with a smile and said: "How about it, you lost, I said that this Yuan Shu must be the first one who can't hold his breath."

"That's right, our commander-in-chief really has no plans. There is a saying, in the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, and that is our commander-in-chief." As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin, Whoever licked the word started his performance.

A few days ago, Li Chen made a bet with his subordinate civil servants, betting on who would be the first to stand up among these people who received the imperial decree.Everyone is saying that everyone has it, but most people still think that Ma Teng or Gongsun Zan will be the first to stand up and become king.

Why does everyone guess Ma Teng or Gongsun Zan?Because the first to become king will inevitably become the target of public criticism.Ma Teng and Gongsun Zan are located in Youzhou and Bingzhou, both Youzhou and Bingzhou are remote areas.Even if they become kings, they will not be caught in a tight siege for a while.

Almost everyone thought that Ma Teng or Gongsun Zan would stand up first, but only Li Chen said it was Yuan Shu.In the previous life, the first person to proclaim himself emperor was Yuan Shu.This kid dared to do such a thing as the emperor, let alone become the king.

This is like a test paper made by a group of people. When everyone was writing the answers according to their abilities, Li Chen took out the standard answers from his pocket and started copying the answers. How could he not be able to guess correctly.

It has been a few days since Yuan Shu became king, and Cao Cao has been waiting for the statement of the warlords in the world.However, to Cao Cao's surprise, Yuan Shao, Li Chen, Sun Jian, and even Liu Bei, who has always been under the banner of protecting the Han Dynasty, did not express their views.

It was as if none of them had heard the news that Yuan Shu became king. This kind of signal made Cao Cao a little confused, and even made Cao Cao feel that there seemed to be something, as if everyone knew about it. While maintaining a certain tacit understanding, only Cao Cao alone was kept in the dark.

Xu Du, the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Cao summoned the civil servants and generals under his command to start a discussion. The events of these days really made Cao Cao a bit like a monk of Zhang Er, confused.

There are countless warlords in the world, and they maintain a kind of tacit understanding about Yuan Shu becoming king, which makes Cao Cao feel a little weird.This silence made Cao Cao a little restless.

Before discussing the matter, Cao Cao first expressed his doubts.As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days, using them for a while, it was his turn to think tanks to solve his worries and doubts.

Guo Jia frowned tightly, and her already pale face became even paler. After thinking for a long time, Guo Jia said: "My lord, I also feel that something is wrong. Ever since we welcomed Han Xiandi back to Xudu, I have I thought it went too smoothly, but now it seems that there is really something wrong."

Guo Jia sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.You know, the few families that have received the imperial decree of the king now, except Yuan Shu who has already become the king.The rest of the people are still secretive, and it can be said that they are more tightly covered than the little girl's crotch.How could Guo Jia guess without the slightest bit of news leaking out.

After Guo Jia finished speaking, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others under Cao Cao also began to express their opinions.But after all the talk, no one got to the point.In fact, it's not that Cao Cao's think tank can't do it.Ultimately, the problem is that they don't know what's going on.

They didn't even know that there was such a thing as conferring a king to disrupt the world, and they didn't know that Han Xiandi Liu Xie issued an imperial edict to confer a king.It is true that they are counselors, and it is true that their job is to advise the master.But before coming up with an idea, they always have to know what the problem is, so they can come up with an idea.

Everyone was talking in a mess, you say something, I say something.One sentence on the east side and one sentence on the west side, this means that the more you talk about Cao Cao, the more vague you are, and the more you talk about Cao Cao, the more irritable.

Cao Cao was a little anxious, he looked at the crowd, and then at Guo Jia, and felt that his mastermind had to make up his mind on this matter.

"Feng Xiao, tell me." Cao Cao glared at everyone, signaling them to shut up and listen to what Guo Jia had to say.

Guo Jia was taken aback by Cao Cao's name. He thought, what am I talking about?You are asking me to solve the problem, you have to write the problem for me.

Guo Jia also noticed that Cao Cao had lost his attention at this moment.At this time, if he can't come up with a plan, I'm afraid the morale of the army will really be messed up.

Guo Jia thought for a long time before slowly saying: "My lord, if we want to break the situation, we must first figure out what the situation is."

"Since the matter started because of Yuan Shu, we have to find a solution from Yuan Shu. In this way, since no one has made a statement, then let's make a statement first."

"The military division means that we send troops to attack Yuan Shu?" Cao Cao hesitated.

"No, we will not send troops."

"My lord issued a letter in the name of the prime minister, in which he denounced Yuan Shu. We did not use weapons, but also expressed our attitude. When the letter spreads all over the world, and after seeing Yuan Shu's attitude, we are making plans. "Guo Jia explained.
