Chapter 923: Cao Cao bows his head to beg for peace

"It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable! Fang Zhiwen, don't deceive others too much!"

Cao cāo walked around the room angrily, with a lot of ink on his clothes and a mess on the floor. The two maids hugged in the corner of the wall tremblingly and dared not move. It was obvious that Cao cāo did not control his emotions just now.

"Lord, please be angry!"

Xi Zhicai said calmly, but his eyes were full of unwillingness! I have to say that it was really uncomfortable to be slapped in the face by the opponent repeatedly!...

Cao cāo took a few deep breaths when he heard this, raised his hands and rubbed them on his temples. Obviously, he had a headache!

Cao cāo's anger was more due to serious frustration. It was already embarrassing that his important officials took the initiative to let their opponents complete the assassination in order to calm down the situation. However, even so, Fang Zhiwen was still reluctant to give up. He even had to stoop the matter to Zhang Liang before he calmed the incident, forcing himself to ask Zhang Liang for guilt!

This was like I stretched my face and hitting someone. After the beat, I didn’t appreciate it. I kicked you hard on the butt. How could the word “sincere” taste so good!

Cao cāo, who was so shameless, really lost all his face this time. He was already very thick-skinned if he was not angry to death!

"Damn it! It's really abominable!"

Cao cāo said fiercely, while trying hard to control his emotions. "Lord, what's the point of being angry? Why don't you think about how to benefit from it? Moreover, now Fang Zhiwen is ready to take the initiative to go north, is it because the lord wants to go to Fang Zhiwen to start a war?"

"this"

Cao cāo stopped walking back and forth, lowered his head to ponder, and for a while, Cao cāo suddenly raised his head and asked with a look of joy or anger.

"Zhicai, what do you think of this?"

"Since you have been forced to question Zhang Liang, why not go on generously? Runan is also where we want. Since that's the case, then take advantage of the situation!"

"Take a chance?"

"Yes, take advantage of the situation and attack Zhang Liang with great fanfare. And call on Liu Bei, Cai Mao and Yuan Shu to attack him together to fight against him, and let them all fight against injustice!"

"Great righteousness?Great righteousness! Yes!" Cao cāo nodded, and his frown gradually stretched out. He seemed to see a possibility from it, that is, the possibility of driving the Yellow Turban Thief out of the southern part of Runan. If Zhang Liang was defeated, Yuan Shu would be alone in Runan. Next,

"What the lord said is exactly. As long as we use this great name, we can force Yuan Shu and others to stand opposite Zhang Liang. At least, we can only watch Zhang Liang be beaten and cannot join forces with Zhang Liang to restrain us!"

"Okay! OK! That's it!"

Cao cāo walked back to the desk excitedly, swept the messy floor with his feet, and sat down, picked up the map on the floor and spread it on the countertop. He looked carefully, and after a while, Cao cāo finally smiled and looked up, "Zhicai is really a talented person! So what should Fang Zhiwen do?" When he said Fang Zhiwen, Cao cāo's tone was a little angry, but he no longer had the anger he had just now.

Xi Zhicai smiled and said firmly: "Please seek peace!"

"Summon?"

"Yes, the more he wants to deal with this matter inexplicably, the more we have to make peace with him."

"What if he refuses?"

"He definitely refused, in order to be able to attack and plunder our Linhai area at any time. Lord, now our Linhai area is under the attack of Fang Zhiwen's naval army. Therefore, we must also think about this matter."

"Well, let's discuss this later. I just know that Fang Zhiwen is unwilling to make peace, why do we still want to seek peace?"

"It's still a good thing. At least we should not lose points morally. Then strategically, we always occupy a moral high point. Fang Zhiwen laid a heavy foreshadowing on the assassination of his wife, and we had to be prepared. Therefore, taking the initiative to make peace is a means, and the key is to spread our voices. As for whether Fang Zhiwen accepts it or not, it doesn't matter."

Cao cāo nodded repeatedly: "No, not bad. I heard that Tao Gongzu has served in the Jixian court. So should we send his tribe members to Fang Zhiwen and entrust him to send them to Jixian?"

"The lord is good at plotting, and this is a great way to win moral support! He can also convince the hearts of the scholars and people in Xuzhou."

"Haha" Thinking of the wonderful thing, Cao cāo couldn't help but smile. The depression and headache just now seemed to have disappeared. "When Fang Zhiwen raises his army north, we can move westward to deal with Zhang Liang. Now the lord can verbally denounce it first, and at the same time send an edict to Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and Cai Mao to invite him to work together to deal with Zhang Liang!"

"Good! So who will make peace with Fang Zhiwen?"

"Chen Hanyu is the most suitable!"

"Chen Hanyu? I'm not afraid that Fang Zhiwen will kill him!"

"It would be better to kill it, which means that Fang Zhiwen is violent and unruly. Moreover, his subordinates thought that Fang Zhiwen would definitely not kill him, and at most it would be a humiliation. In this way, Chen Gui would be more devoted to his lord."

Cao cāo thought for a moment and nodded, "It's Chen Hanyu! After this matter is correct, we can return west. As for the coastal and riverside areas, I thought that it could be vacant for the time being, and the western part of Xia Pi, Peng Kingdom and Guangling should be done first. Moreover, if we start a war with Zhang Liang, we must be cautious about Zhang Bao's attack behind the scenes. Therefore, there should be no major changes in Xuzhou's troops for the time being."

"The lord is very worried!"

When Xi Zhi left, the figure completely disappeared, Cao Cāoyin lowered his face and said coldly: "Come on, pull these two wastes down and kill them!"

"Master, please spare me! We didn't hear anything, we saw everything, wuwu."

Cao cāo shook his sleeves and walked inward as if unheard of it. Only two poor maid Chen Gui, who was lying on the ground, were ordered to go on an envoy. He naturally knew that this errand was not a good thing. Although he was unwilling to do so, he did not dare to disobey Cao cāo's orders.

Different

i, Chen Gui's mission team arrived at Lianyun Island. At this moment, the people and the army on Lianyun Island had almost sent it, leaving only Gao Shun, Yue Xi and Fang Zhiwen's guards. If Fang Zhiwen had not been waiting for Chen Gui to arrive, he would have already boarded the ship and headed north!

Fang Zhiwen's attitude towards Chen Gui was lukewarm and did not receive as humiliated as Chen Gui had imagined, nor did he want to kill Chen Gui to vent his anger for Tao Qian.

Chen Gui secretly looked at Fang Zhiwen who was present. There was also the young Guo Jia. It was difficult to see any other emotions from their faces, but this kind of coldness and contempt really made Chen Gui feel a little uncomfortable. After all, he was also a famous scholar in Xuzhou. He always felt embarrassed by being underestimated like this.

Fang Zhiwen raised his head from the desk and smiled at Mi Zhen who was flashing by the door, then slowly looked at Chen Gui and said.

"I understand the meaning of Cao cāo, but Cao cāo thinks he is? He will be charged with anyone who wants to beat him. The war will be flying. Now that the battle is over, all the benefits are taken away, and then I will pretend to be good people! I am not a fool. Go back and tell Cao cāo that whether to fight or not is not up to him to decide. People are responsible for their own behavior. For Tao Qian's family, that is the matter between Tao Qian and Cao cāo. I can escort him on behalf of him, but I will not comment on Cao cāo's behavior."

"Sir, Cao Gong is also in the idea of ​​calming things down this time. Furthermore, Cao Gong attacked Lujiang because of his longing with Sun Jian and his anger at Sun Ce's children stealing high positions. As for attacking Xuzhou, it was because of the request of the people of Xuzhou, not to promote the army without righteousness." Fang Zhiwen sneered at Chen Gui, and Guo Jia looked at him with pity, and Chen Gui couldn't help but tremble.

"Chen Hanyu, can you also be called a famous scholar in Xuzhou? Where did you learn your moral etiquette? Even if Tao Gongzu was unworthy, he stabilized the situation in Xuzhou in chaos and avoided the people who were caught in war in Xuzhou. You led the thief into the house and said the people's requests with high sound! It's simply shameless! You can only represent the interests of your Chen family, but not the people of Xuzhou! If the people of Xuzhou are the same as you, then the ungrateful people of Xuzhou should be punished!"

Chen Gui opened his mouth, but under the pressure of Fang Zhiwen's stern aura, he did not dare to say anything to refute. He stumbled and didn't know how to speak.

Fang Zhiwen was a little impatient and waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't have any speculation. I am not interested in saying more to you, just go back and convey my words truthfully, and I will send you off!"

After saying that, Fang Zhiwen stood up and turned around. Guo Jia also followed him with a smile. Chen Gui looked at Fang Zhiwen disappearing at the corner gate with a humiliation of extreme contempt and aroused his heart, but the extreme aggrievance and anger had nowhere to be told. In the turbulence, a sweet and fishy mouth surged into his throat. Chen Gui quickly suppressed the surging smell. He didn't want to make a fool of himself on the spot. If this matter spread, he would have no shame to see others in the future!

"Haha, lord, you knocked Chen Hanyu's old face to a crackle. If he gets angry, your reputation will be bad!"

"Huh? What's wrong with that? I'm very righteous and angrily scolding the slander! Haha."

"Haha, let the Xuzhou people on Lianyun Island visit Chen Gui tonight!"

"If I were him, I would quickly run away with my tail between my feet and wait for the evening!"

"Uh, that's right! Then I'll have a banquet for two young men from the Tao family tonight, so I'll suppress my shock, and I'll suppress my shock!"

Fang Zhiwen stopped, turned his head to look at Guo Jia's smiling face, and asked suspiciously: "Do you mean drinking?"

"Wine banquet, wine banquet, how can you not drink wine!"

"Well, this idea is good. It is necessary to suppress the two young masters Tao. By the way, please accompany the Xuzhou people in Lianyun Island. Then thank you for your hard work tonight!"

"Haha, it's not hard work, this is what my subordinates deserve!"

"That's great. Feng Xiaoren is on duty for me, so I'll go to drink tonight! Haha"

"This is answer!? Lord, it's not that you can't be so shameless!"

Guo Jia looked at Fang Zhiwen who was walking away with a smile and chased after him indignantly.
