071. Are you going to kill Xuande?(1/2)
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Cao Xin asked helplessly.
Cao Cao took a deep breath, feeling that he could not suppress the anger in his heart. He took three more deep breaths, lit the pipe and took a puff. Looking at the white smoke spreading in the air, his expression gradually softened.
"Lao Liu, sit down first and we'll talk slowly."
Cao Cao waved his hand and asked Cao Xin to sit down opposite.
Cao Xin glanced at Cao Cao, "Brother, are you sure you won't yell at me again?"
Cao Cao covered his forehead. If I talk to him again in the future, I will be a pig.
Dong dong dong~
Someone knocked on the door outside.
"who?!"
Cao Cao asked impatiently.
"Your father!"
Cao Taigong shouted from outside the door, "Cao Ah Ma, you'd better be careful when talking to Ziyu. Don't yell. This is the Cao family, not your prime minister's house, let alone a place for you to show off your official airs and show off your power."
"Yes, brother, Ziyu finally came here and will be going south again in a few days. It's really not good for you to yell like this."
Second brother Cao Bin advised.
"Brother, as a family, we should discuss matters slowly, and yelling is not good."
"Brother, please don't bring your emotions at work home. It will affect the peace of the family. Dad will not allow it."
"Brother, Ziyu is a fierce general. If he doesn't yell at you, he is giving in to you. You'd better keep it in check."
"Dad, Mom said it's time to eat."
The third brother, the fourth brother, the fifth brother, and several children, big and small, were at the door talking endlessly.
Cao Cao felt dizzy after hearing this, and was very angry. Why are all the family members helping Cao Ziyu to speak? You are a family and I am the only outsider?
And you think my yelling is hurtful? That’s because you haven’t heard Cao Ziyu’s words. His words are ten thousand times more hurtful than yelling and can make people vomit blood.
"Cao Ah Man, did you hear that?"
Grand Duke Cao roared.
Cao Cao took a deep breath and said as calmly as possible, "Dad, I heard it. I just told Ziyu not to be too arrogant and extravagant. I wanted him to learn from famous ancient generals and become famous in history in the future. Dad, I also want to do Ziyu's best."
Cao Cao glanced at Cao Xin and sneered.
Cao Xin laughed loudly, stood up, opened the door, and said a few words to Cao Taigong and several brothers. Everyone dispersed, and Cao Xin closed the door again and sat down in front of Cao Cao.
"What did you tell dad?"
Cao Cao asked with a dark face. As for the group of people outside, he couldn't send them away with a few words, but the bastard Cao Ziyu could. This made him very unhappy.
"Haha, it's nothing. It's cold outside. I asked my brothers to help dad go back first. Don't let him freeze. We just chatted in the house and there won't be any big trouble. Dad believed me and took the others away.
"
Cao Cao took a deep breath. This bastard was afraid that his father would be cold and asked him to go back first, but his own son was indifferent and wouldn't even open the door. What would others think if this kind of thing spread?
It's too much pressure to be a son with such a bastard.
Cao Cao shook his head, "Ziyu, you will go to Huainan after the New Year. Yuan Rang said that Yang Hong was secretly contacting Yuan Shu and wanted to hand over Huainan County to Yuan Shu. After you go, check it out carefully. If there is really a problem with Yang Hong, kill him first and report later."
"
"Brother, this question is not difficult to solve, but brother, you haven't answered my question yet."
"What's the problem?"
Cao Cao frowned.
"Brother, you haven't said yet whether you believe me or not. This is very important."
Cao Xin said seriously.
Breathe~
Cao Cao breathed in and out, holding back his anger and said, "I believe you!"
"Brother, your tone is not sincere at all, it's too perfunctory."
"....I trust you!"
"No, no, there's not even a smile on my face. What I want to hear is the voice from the heart, the voice of the soul. I believe you."
Cao Xin gestured.
Cao Cao's beard trembled at the corners of his mouth. He took a breath, pulled up the muscles at the corners of his mouth, and put on a stiff smile, "Ziyu, I believe you."
"Brother, you are..."
"Shut up!!"
Cao Cao was furious, pointed at Cao Xin's nose and shouted, "Cao Ziyu, I have tolerated you for a long time. If you weren't my brother, I would have asked someone to kill you. You'd better be quiet."
Cao Xin touched his nose and said with a smile, "Brother, don't get angry. I didn't say it was impossible. Now I believe that brother believes in me."
"snort!"
Cao Cao didn't appreciate it at all.
"Brother, since you believe in me, why don't you want me to be the vanguard to fight against Lu Bu?"
"You are General Pingnan. If there is anything going on in the south, who can I call you? I tell you Cao Ziyu, if Huainan County loses a city, I will remove you from your post!"
Cao Cao said angrily.
"It's no problem, it's just brother. I'm worried about you. Lu Bu in Xuzhou is no better than Yuan Shu in Huainan. Lu Bu has a red rabbit horse that is very fast. Lu Bu's archery skills are also good. If... there is another emergency, I am far away in Huainan
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to rescue you in time.”
Cao Xin said seriously.
"Bastard! That Lu Bu only has 20,000 troops. How can the Prime Minister and Liu Xuande join forces to defeat him? Don't be unfounded."
Cao Cao snorted coldly.
This time against Lu Bu, he must win.
Not for Xuzhou or for the world, he just wanted to prove to Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and everyone that without Cao Ziyu, he, Cao Mengde, could still win the battle, and he also wanted to defeat the best general in the world, and let everyone know that he, Cao Mengde, was the best.
The most powerful commander.
"Brother, I hope you are right. By the way, there is one more thing. Brother, what do you think of Liu Xuande?"
Cao Xin stared at Cao Cao and asked.
Cao Cao paused while stroking his beard and glanced at him, "Why do you ask Xuande?"
"Brother, I often hear Xun You, Guo Jia, Zhong Yao and others praising Liu Bei as a hero who will never stay under others for a long time. If brother wants to be the emperor, he should get rid of Liu Xuande early to avoid future troubles."
"You want to kill Xuande?"
Cao Cao stood up and stared at him with wide eyes.
"Why did you want to kill Liu Xuande? Oh, I remembered it. Not long ago, Zhang Fei, Liu Xuande's third brother, smashed up your restaurant and beat up your people. You were unhappy and wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone?"
"Brother, I'm not..."
"What are you not? You are, Cao Ziyu. That Zhang Fei just smashed a few broken wine glasses and windows at you, but you want to kill the three brothers?! Why are you so narrow-minded, and why are you so angry in your heart?
Killing people at every turn? That’s three lives!”
Cao Cao slapped the table and criticized harshly.
Cao Xin looked at Cao Cao and was speechless.
At this time, he had been able to confirm that Boss Cao was Liu Bei's undercover agent in Cao's camp. From this, he and the Langya Army were also benevolent and righteous teachers under Uncle Liu Huang.
Thinking of this, Cao Xin felt much more relaxed. After all, Liu Huangshu represented justice in the Three Kingdoms. Joining Liu Huangshu's team would please many people.
"Prime Minister, I have become despicable, narrow-minded and cruel. I will never talk about killing Liu Xuande again."
Cao Xin knew his mistakes and could correct them.
Cao Cao waved his hand and said feebly, "Go ahead!"
Cao Cao was really out of energy. Talking to Cao Xin so much made him not only feel pain in his head, heart and body, but also weakness in his limbs. He was even more tired than after fighting a siege. If he continued talking, he was worried that his body would not be able to bear it.
"Ahem, brother, there is one more little thing."
Cao Xin stood up and said.
"explain!"
"Big brother, you also know that I am a lustful little brother. After beating Lu Bu, you have to keep Diao Chan for me."
"roll!!!"
Cao Cao roared.
