Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei abandoned?I cut Mrs. Humi

Chapter 238 Xun Yu Gives Up on Cao Cao
In Yang Biao's skinny eyes, the fire of life seemed to be extinguished at any moment.

Cao Cao asked in surprise, "Master Yang, why are you so thin?"

Yang Biao tried his best to straighten his stooped body, and said: "I am old and foolish, but I have the love of an old cow."

Cao Cao heard that he wanted to say that Yang Xiu died at the hands of Cao Pi, and that when he grew old, he became haggard like this.

Cao Cao sighed and beckoned Yang Biao to sit down.

Yang Biao shook his head: "Today I am here to summon His Majesty, please ask Wei Wang to attack tomorrow, I hope that Wei Wang will not be absent."

Cao Cao was a little puzzled: "Do you know why His Majesty summoned you?"

Yang Biao replied: "Your Majesty's meaning, I don't dare to speculate on my own, I also ask Wei Wang to come to the palace tomorrow to explain."

After Yang Biao finished speaking, he went out tremblingly, leaving Cao Cao sitting on the throne, unavoidably a little puzzled.

"What is the emperor calling me again? Is it itchy again?"

Cao Cao stared into the distance, his eyes became sharp again.

The next day, in the palace hall, Liu Xie was fidgeting on the dragon chair.

Xun Yu, Yang Biao and others split up on both sides.

Cao Cao uttered a royal robe, exuding majesty all over his body, and walked up to the hall, his aura was so strong that every step he took was overwhelming.

With Xu Chu behind him, five hundred tiger and cardinal troops lined up on both sides, each holding a weapon.

This big battle frightened Liu Xie on the dragon chair.

Liu Xie panicked, stood up from the dragon chair, and wanted to go down to salute Cao Cao.

Xun Yu at the side took a look and stopped him, "Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, how can you salute the King of Wei first?"

"Even if the old minister puts his life to the test, Cao Cao will not despise His Majesty."

Cao Cao walked to the middle, glanced at the old ministers in the palace, and asked, "I wonder what your Majesty wants to call the ministers into the palace?"

A group of old ministers who were still filled with righteous indignation had initially said that they wanted to impeach Cao Cao, but when they saw Cao Cao, they were immediately speechless in fright.

Looking at the embarrassed Liu Xie, Xun Yu stepped forward and said, "I heard that the king of Wei bought people's hearts in the field yesterday, and there are many people who agree with him. They worship him like an emperor?"

"Dare to ask King Wei, is there such a thing?"

Seeing Xun Yu's tone like a stranger at the moment, Cao Cao couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Xun Yu seemed to have aged a lot, his temples were graying, and he was very haggard.

He didn't discuss this matter with Xun Yu, after all, Cao Cao had experienced countless times of splashing dirty water.

Sighing, Cao Cao said, "Wen Ruo, it was not my intention to give you the empty box earlier. The box is a shortbread sent by my daughter and son-in-law."

"I tasted it alone, it was very delicious, and I personally wrote a box of crisps with a pen. I originally wanted to transfer it to you and let you whet your appetite."

"I don't want to take a box of shortbread. Yang Xiu said it was one bite of shortbread per person, and then secretly ate it. It doesn't mean to make you commit suicide."

When Xun Yu heard this, he realized that he had misunderstood Cao Cao, because there was indeed a box of crisps written on the box, but this could not conceal the fact that Cao Cao was ambitious.

Seeing that Cao Cao was as silent as a cicada, the others dared not speak at all.

Xun Yu had no choice but to talk to Cao Cao instead of Liu Xie, "The matter is over, and the King of Wei doesn't need to mention it again."

Cao Cao knew that Xun Yu would not come back to him, but, after decades of friendship, Xun Yu worked hard and helped him along the way. Will Cao Cao be the one who unloads the grind and kills the donkey?
Cao Cao said: "If Wen has anything to do, just say it directly, but Gu will agree to all your requests."

As the emperor, Liu Xie was like a foil, and he couldn't say a word until now.

Instead, with dry mouth and tongue, he sat on the dragon chair in a panic, watching Xun Yu and Cao Cao's confrontation nervously.

Xun Yu looked at Cao Cao and said, "Your Majesty will choose the back cover for King Wei, and ask King Wei to hand over his military power to support his life."

Saying this sentence is tantamount to a bomb, which directly touched Cao Cao's nilin.

Everyone at the scene was so frightened that they didn't dare to say a word, and only a loyal and courageous person like Xun Yu dared to say such a thing.

Liu Xie was so frightened that his face paled, his hands gripping the armrest of the dragon chair trembled, and his chest heaved violently.

It could be seen that he was so nervous that he was about to collapse.

Dozens of veterans in the court, except for Yang Biao, came up to stand with Xun Yu tremblingly at this moment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Veteran seconded."

After that, there was no more movement.

Beads of sweat flowed down from Liu Xie's forehead.

In the main hall of the palace, a needle can be heard.

Xu Chu, who was behind Cao Cao, already had an angry face, and his hand was already on the handle of the knife.

Time passed little by little, in the hearts of everyone, it seemed like a long time.

"Ha ha!"

Cao Cao suddenly burst out laughing, looking at Xun Yu, his voice was a bit sad: "In Wen Ruo's mind, I, Cao Mengde, am I a traitor?"

Cao Cao stood up, and all the veterans in the hall, including Yang Biao, couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Like a dangerous demon, it is about to choose someone and devour it.

In the face of this demon, they themselves don't know what kind of ending their lives will lead to.

Only Xun Yu, neither humble nor overbearing, stood respectfully facing Liu Xie.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "I think back then, when the imperial court enlisted me to join the army and fight for the country, Liu Biao, Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, Ma Teng and others, which one was not ambitious?"

"Yuan Shu blatantly proclaimed himself emperor, and Wuhuan in the west of Liaoxi, which one was not wiped out by his own hands?"

"I have fought for my country alone for decades, and now, as the king of Wei, my position as a minister has reached its peak, so what is the hope?"

As Cao Cao said, his tone gradually became a little angry: "You see the lone position with high authority, and you doubt the lone one, it's really absurd!"

"Now, even you, Wen Ruo, have come to ask me to hand over my military power."

Cao Cao stared at Xun Yu, overhauled for a while, and said: "It's really not possible. If I have no military power, I must ask the traitors. If I fail, the big man will not be protected. Then Jiangdong Sun Quan, who will separate Soochow, Yizhou Liu Bei, Make yourself king."

"If there is no Gu in the world, how many people will be called emperors and how many people will be called kings? Gu's intentions, Wen Ruo, you have followed Gu for many years, but you may not be able to know."

When Cao Cao talked about his anger, he was not only a little disappointed.

Hitting his chest with his palm, he asked Liu Xie, "Who can know my heart?"

Liu Xie didn't dare to answer, but covered his face with his sleeve.

Cao Cao asked the crowd again: "Who can know my heart?"

All the veterans bowed their heads one after another, and finally, Cao Cao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Who can know my heart?"

A group of old ministers were so worried that they didn't dare to wait any longer, and immediately left the hall.

Liu Xie couldn't stand Cao Cao's questioning, and hurriedly left the hall with the help of the eunuch.

When Xun Yu saw the matter, he stopped there and withdrew from the hall, leaving only Cao Cao and Xu Chu standing on top of the hall.

Cao Cao smiled sadly and sat down on the main hall. For a moment, he seemed to have aged decades.

The tone was full of sorrow: "This whole world, no one knows my state of mind, how sad!"

At this moment, Xu Chu suddenly seemed to be enlightened, and stepped forward to help Cao Cao: "My lord, I know someone who can understand my master's state of mind."

Cao Cao smiled feebly and said, "Who is it?"

Xu Chu said: "Mr. Mu Shui, you can definitely understand the heart of the Lord."
