Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

Page 739

Chen Gong persuaded.

Although hurtful, it is also a helpless move.

Zhuge Liang turned his head to one side, already disappointed in Liu Bei and Chen Gong from the bottom of his heart.

Seeing how they were working together, Kong Ming didn't even want to persuade them.

Because he knew... Liu Bei couldn't be persuaded, the fiery eyes of the other party had completely betrayed his inner thoughts.

Compared with Cao Ying's treatment of the people, Liu Bei's side is far behind, and Zhuge Liang has already seen it through!

He has his own bottom line in his heart, some things can be done, and some things cannot be done.

After sighing helplessly, he couldn't help but think of the note he handed to Zhang Fei when he was on Huarong Road.

It seems...he has to work hard to prepare after he enters Shu, otherwise he will not be able to make great efforts to get him promoted, and he still wants to marry a girl from Xiahou's family.

That was a dowry of [-] gold!Who is not excited?

"Hahaha! Alright, just follow what the official platform said!"

"Xing Daorong, come here, now that you don't have pen and ink, I can only use a little blood of yours to draw a map!"

Liu Bei laughed and waved to Xing Daorong.

Xing Daorong pointed at himself with a confused face.

"Hey? Did you make a mistake? Why did you drain my blood?"

"Because you are fat, so you have a lot of blood! If you don't let me go, why don't you let me go? You eat several people's military rations a day, so why don't you contribute what you feel good about?"

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and threatened.

Xing Daorong wanted to say no, but the Yanyue knife made him afraid to speak.

If he didn't do it himself, he was afraid that Guan Yu would do it himself.

So he could only grievously cut a cut on his finger.

"Okay...Okay, just let it go! Hurry up!"

Ten minutes later, Xing Daorong fell to the ground with a pale face.

Satisfied, Liu Bei solemnly put the blood-red map in his hand into his bosom.

The group set off again and went straight to Yizhou under the leadership of Zhang Song.

……

Cao Ying at the other end didn't know that Liu Bei ran into Zhang Song by chance.

Today, Guo Jia and others have already been waiting outside Xia Houzhe's room.

"Why hasn't this Yuanyi come out yet? It was agreed to deliver it to me today! If it continues, troops will be dispatched to Yangzhou tomorrow."

Guo Jia was so anxious that he walked around in the small courtyard.

Compared to his anxiety, Cao Chun, Ji Ling and the others seemed much calmer.

One person was holding a bowl of stinky tofu, eating canned herring with shasha, full of enjoyment.

It's just that this smell is so smoked that other people can't stand it.

"Steamer! Can you stop eating it in front of us? It stinks, believe it or not, I'll stab you with a halberd!"

Dian Wei was furious and shook the halberd in his hand.

Ji Ling and Cao Chun immediately turned around and turned their backs to the crowd.

"Okay, we didn't eat in front of you, don't interrupt us."

Everyone was blinded by this hand, completely speechless.

"Where is your third brother Zhang? Doesn't he eat with you?"

Suddenly, Lu Bu found that Zhang Fei, who also loved stinky things, was not there, so he couldn't help asking.

Cao Chun pointed to a corner by the wall with his chopsticks.

"Hiding there!"

Everyone turned their eyes, and they saw a figure hiding in the corner of the wall, with a mean smile all the time.

"Zhang Heizi, what are you doing there?"

Hearing the question, Zhang Fei turned his head to look, picked up the letter in his hand and shook it.

"Hey! I'm writing a letter from home! My little Juaner wrote me a letter, and I'm replying!"

Lu Bu and others suddenly realized.

"So that's it. Seeing that you are acting like a fool, restrain yourself."

Zhang Fei's face was full of happiness, and he didn't care about it.

"Is this what it feels like to be in love? It's really great, how can it be described in a sweet word."

Seeing his intoxicated appearance, everyone raised their middle fingers.

Guo Jia took out a piece of paper meanly and wrote a few words.

"Love is not necessarily a good thing! Zhang Laohei, just look at me!"

"According to Yuanyi's font, the upper part of Lian Lian is taken from the abnormal state, and the lower part is taken from the abnormal state..."

"No wonder you can do such beastly things, even the little girl is not spared! Sigh... so you are a change..."

Guo Jia smiled contemptuously, but before he finished speaking, Zhang Fei rushed over like lightning.

Ti Liu swung a hot wheel in his hand, making him dizzy.

But when everyone heard these words, they felt that they were very reasonable, and then looked at Zhang Fei's eyes again.

There was still a tsk tsk sound from his mouth.

Zhang Fei was extremely ashamed by them.

Fortunately, the door was opened at this time, and Xia Houzhe came out with a smile.

"I heard you say there is a pervert here? Where is it?"

"Fuck! Yuanyi, you finally came out, our doll is ready?"

Guo Jia got up from the ground and rushed over.

Xia Houzhe nodded, and with one hand, several empty inflatable dolls and physical dolls appeared in front of their eyes.

The doll's face and facial features are all done vividly, just like a real person.

Everyone was delighted to see it, at least the appearance is quite good, but the empty appearance is a bit creepy.

"Hey! Guo Shenxu, your wife has arrived, you can choose between two styles."

"The one on the left is inflatable. There is a blow hole at the fingertips. If you blow hard into it, your wife will be able to use it."

"The other one has a skeleton, it's heavy, and it's not very convenient to carry!"

After listening to Xia Houzhe's introduction, Guo Jia and the others looked at it from a distance, but did not touch it with their hands.

After all... these things will become the brother's temporary daughter-in-law, so they can't be touched randomly.

After all, brothers and wives are not welcome... Bah, don't be bullied!

"It's inconvenient to carry the physical one? I want an inflatable one! Anyway, it's just for comfort during the war. I don't want to be scolded by the master for carrying a doll."

Guo Jia picked out an inflatable one, carried it immediately and ran to his residence, obviously to try the taste.

The rest of the civil and military generals who had placed orders also took one back.

In an instant, only Cao Cao and Xia Houzhe were left in the courtyard.

For them, Xia Houzhe was useless at this moment.

"This group of guys, when they are asked to do practical things, they are not active, and they are faster than anyone else when they are not serious!"

Cao Cao shook his head for a while.

Xia Houzhe chuckled lightly: "You also have to be considerate of them, you are accompanied by a wife, but they don't."

"That's right...as the prime minister, I can't be too harsh! By the way, brother, our military rations are already in short supply, and we won't last a month."

"I'm afraid... we can't support us to continue attacking Yangzhou. What do you think we should do now? Should we continue to attack, or...after Jingzhou is completely stabilized, withdraw our troops?"

"In addition, my wife sent a letter saying that other aristocratic families in Jingzhou are a little restless. How should we deal with it?"

Chapter 841

Listening to Cao Cao's series of questions, Xia Houzhe calmly took out a small stove and a basin of water and put them on the table.

After the two sat down, they put the water on the stove, took out another pot of rice wine and put it in to warm it up.

After a while, each of them poured a glass of warm rice wine and began to drink.

"Tsk tsk... A cup of hot yellow rice wine in this winter is really warming your stomach! It's much more comfortable than white wine. Brother, you will enjoy it."

Cao Cao sighed and shook his head.

Xia Houzhe chuckled.

"I'm a vagrant. I can only study how to live comfortably when I have nothing to do. This is normal!"

"I also want to be like you, to be a vagrant without being tied down by the great cause! Alas..."

Cao Cao put down his wine glass and looked at him enviously.

Xia Houzhe smiled and waved his hands.

"Some people are born unwilling to be mediocre and are busy all their lives, so don't think about it! When you grow up, I can enjoy the cool with you."

"Without you carrying the weight forward, where would my years be so peaceful? Don't you think so?"

Hearing Xia Houzhe's ridicule, Cao Cao burst out laughing!

Shaking his head uncontrollably, he poured him a glass of wine.

"You kid, you'll trick me into working for you! I'm under attack from both sides now, it can be said that I have internal troubles and foreign troubles!"

"There is Liu Zhang in the west, the remnants of the Sun family and Jiangdong in the east, Wu Ju and Shi Xie in the south, and Shi Xie in particular makes me worry so much!"

"And internally...the major families in Jingzhou are ready to move, and they are not very cooperative. It is not so easy to calm the world."

Although Cao Ying's sphere of influence has expanded rapidly, its strength is also very strong.

But with the rapid expansion of power, sequelae also appeared.

That is insufficient control over the aristocratic families, especially those big aristocratic families who want to fish in troubled waters.

Cao Cao hated this situation, but he couldn't do anything about them. It was because the aristocratic family had too much influence, and it was deeply ingrained and implicated Kuang Kuang and was not so active.

If the aristocratic family is not suppressed, the voice of dissatisfaction will inevitably become louder and louder in the future, and will eventually erupt into rebellion.

But Jiaozhou is adjacent to Jingzhou, and the threat is still above Jiangdong!

Shi Xie and Wu Ju divided up Jiaozhou.

Especially Shi Xie was the strongest, he could be said to be the emperor of the land, and they even dared to assassinate the governor sent by the court.

And...with more than [-] soldiers, their strength should not be underestimated.

(Jiaozhou has a very wide scope and governs today's Guangdong, Guangxi, and northern and central Vietnam.)

Xia Houzhe tapped on the stone table lightly, with a calm smile on his lips.

"Eat food one bite at a time, and do things one by one!"

"Don't worry about Jiaozhou. Although Na Shixie has great power and strength, he has won the hearts of the people in Jiaozhou for doing things for the people, but...he is a soft bone!"

"You only need to send him a letter to surrender and give him an official position. As long as your strength does not weaken, he will not rebel for the time being!"

"Wait until we have dealt with other matters... then turn around and kill Shi Xie to take Jiaozhou."

Xia Houzhe understands that people in the world are different, and some people admire power, so they will try their best to become a high-ranking official.

For example, Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo and others are full of desire for hegemony.

There are also some people who have no intention of fighting for hegemony and just want to live in a corner and farm and develop. Shi Xie is such a person.
