Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 122 I will make you Captain Mojin! (The second update of Chapter 4000)
Stepping into the back hall, Boss Cao and Xi Zhong are already waiting in it.

After seeing Wu Liang, Xi Zhong immediately sized him up and down like an interviewer at a later interview meeting...

So that Wu Liang quickly looked around subconsciously, if he found a ball of paper on the ground, he would decisively pick it up and throw it into the trash can.

Oh, right.

The paper is still a treasure in this era. Even if Boss Cao has the paper, he is absolutely reluctant to throw it in a ball on the ground for such a perverted interview test, which is too wasteful.

However, it can be seen from Xi Zhong's appearance that he is about to face an "interview".

Although Boss Cao is the real main interviewer, Xi Zhong's opinion should not be underestimated either.

If Wu Liang's guess is correct, as long as he can pass this interview, he will officially become an employee of Boss Cao, and he is a confidant employee, so he must perform well in the future.

"Meet the envoy, meet..."

Wu Liang hasn't met Xi Zhong yet, so he doesn't know him, even if he has guesses in his mind, he won't call him indiscriminately.

"This is Xi Zhicai, my uncle's military adviser."

Cao Ting hurriedly reminded in a low voice.

"Meet the military master."

Wu Liang bowed and worshiped.

"Goodbye."

Xi Zhong was gentle and elegant, and smiled lightly.

"It's all our own people and it's private, so you don't have to care about these etiquettes."

Boss Cao grinned, and said to Xi Zhong, "Zhicai, this is Wu Liang, Wu Youcai, the Sima of the Huan army I told you about. You can see that he has great talents at a young age. The battle in Xuzhou and the war in Yanzhou Among them, they all made a lot of contributions, how about it?"

"When I first saw this little brother, he was indeed a good-looking talent, but he didn't understand other things, so he dared not comment."

Xi Zhong smiled and said calmly.

Is this the rhythm of singing a red face and a bad face?
Wu Liang thought to himself, but he just smiled with a low eyebrow and did not speak.

"You are talented, I heard from Anmin that you brought me a big gift this time, is there such a thing?"

Boss Cao asked again expectantly.

"Your envoy, this gift was not brought back by the late general, but brother Anmin and all the soldiers of the Zhuan army brought it back for you. Please take a look at it."

As he spoke, Wu Liang took out an object wrapped in layers of linen from his bosom.

However, he did not hand it over to Boss Cao in person, but first held it in both hands and slightly bowed and presented it in front of Cao Tin, who will hand it over to Cao Tin, the warlord of the army.

What does this mean?

Can you just give it directly?

Cao Ting didn't know that Wu Liang was showing the excellent virtue of "not greedy for merit and not overstepping the ranks", so he was a little surprised, but he still took the object, opened it layer by layer, and handed it to Boss Cao.

When the last layer of sackcloth was lifted, a faint light had already shone from it.

In an instant, the back hall, which was still dim with two oil lamps on, was illuminated like daytime, but the light was not glaring, giving people a very soft feeling.

"This is……!?"

Boss Cao immediately straightened up, staring at the egg-sized orb in front of him with burning eyes.

Even Xi Zhong opened his eyes slightly, and unconsciously leaned forward, looking at the orb in front of him in disbelief.

"My lord, the last general has verified it with the tombkeeper. This orb is the Suihou bead, which is as famous as the Heshibi. Back then, the Heshibi was made into the imperial seal by the Emperor Qin, but the Suihou bead has never been seen since then. Now that the envoy is raising troops in troubled times, this orb appeared in the world at the right time, and by chance, it fell into the envoy's hands, which is probably a sign."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said.

"Okay! Well said! This is indeed a great gift, a gift that makes me overjoyed!"

Cao Cao immediately patted his thigh and stood up, his eyes filled with ecstasy, "Since Yuan Gonglu (Yuan Shu) got the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo, he often falsely claimed that he was the one whose destiny belonged to him, but now I got the Jade Seal of the Jade Chuanguo The more rare Suihou bead, isn't it the destiny of destiny?"

Because of his status as a post-eunuch, Boss Cao is still often ridiculed and criticized by the gentry class. More than anyone else, he hopes to get a chance to justify his name, and this Suihou Zhu is just an opportunity.

"What Uncle said is that this Suihou Pearl is much more difficult than Chuan Guo Yuxi."

Seeing that Boss Cao was so ecstatic, Cao Ti was also overjoyed.

The more Boss Cao likes him, the more credit he has made with Wu Liang and the Tuan Army, and the more likely he is to get Boss Cao's consent and fulfill his wish to lead the army to fight.

"Hahaha, very good! I will hold a grand bead presentation ceremony in the near future to announce to the world that the Suihou Bead has fallen into my hands, to teach the world that I am the destiny of destiny, and to call those pedantic people who don't know the heights of heaven and earth Shut up your stinky mouth!"

Boss Cao was a little carried away with his smile, and while holding the Suihou Zhu in his hand to look at it carefully, he said proudly.

After all, Boss Cao is still a human being, and as a human being, he will have weaknesses and flaws, and the heart disease that Boss Cao does not want to be mentioned the most is his identity.

In history, I don’t know how many so-called celebrities were killed because they talked about Boss Cao’s identity or despised Boss Cao because of it. Even so, some people still don’t have a long memory.

"Please make you think twice about this matter."

At this time, Xi Zhong finally stood up and said.

"Why?"

Boss Cao stopped smiling and frowned slightly.

"It is indeed destiny for the envoy to obtain the Suihou Pearl, but now is not the best time to announce it to the world."

Xi Zhong cupped his hands and said, "Although the envoy occupies Yanzhou and half of Xuzhou, the situation is still unstable and surrounded by powerful enemies. If the envoy announces it to the world at this time, he may attract criticism. If he is used again by someone with a heart, it will be very difficult. It is easy to become the target of public criticism, and it will be detrimental to Shijun's great cause. If Shijun can temporarily suppress this matter and announce it to the world when the great cause is first completed, no one will dare to say anything. Only then can a great cause be achieved overnight.”

"..."

After hearing this, Boss Cao seemed to have finally realized the problem, sat back down again, and fell into deep thought.

This Xi Zhicai is indeed a rare strategist, and his thinking is really comprehensive...

Wu Liang thought to himself.

He had already thought about this question when he first got Suihouzhu, but no matter then or now, he still had the idea that it had nothing to do with him, and he had no intention of interfering with Boss Cao's decision-making at all.

And Xi Zhicai's simple words, with the meaning of pouring cold water on his head, not only did not arouse Boss Cao's disgust, but it made Boss Cao calm down instantly and fell into deep thought.

It can be seen from this that Xi Zhicai is indeed no ordinary counselor to Boss Cao.

After such a moment of silence.

"Zhicai, there is some truth in what you said. Now there is Yuan Shao in the north, Yuan Shu in the south, Lu Bu and Zhang Miao's rebels have not been defeated, and Tian Kai and Liu Bei are waiting for an opportunity. This matter really needs to be discussed in the long run, and it cannot be rushed."

Boss Cao finally nodded and put "Suihou Zhu" aside.

Then when he looked at Wu Liang again, Boss Cao already showed a look of appreciation on his face, and asked with a smile: "Youcai, this time I heard that you also donated a strange object called 'Flying Slave' to help Anmin and Zhong De Yugucheng defeated Zhang Liao, the prefect of the Northland, is there such a thing?"

"My lord, this 'flying slave' is actually not a strange thing, it's just an ordinary pigeon, it's just been selected and domesticated."

Wu Liang immediately took out a piece of silk that had already been prepared, put it in front of Boss Cao with both hands, and said with a bow, "The selection and domestication methods of this 'flying slave' will be recorded here at the end. I will not dare to tell anyone about it, I will only wait for the envoy to return, and offer it to the envoy with my own hands."

"Good! Good! You're doing great!"

Boss Cao immediately laughed in surprise again, and even when he finished the piece of silk cloth, his hands trembled slightly.

Compared with the symbolic meaning of the Suihou bead, this "flying slave" is the most practical strategic material, and it is also what Boss Cao wants most.

Now Wu Liang is willing to donate on his own initiative, and what he donates is a selection and domestication method that can be invested in a large scale. This is a miracle that can make his army even more powerful.

With the help of such a miracle, his ambition of "telling the world" can be realized one step faster!
"..."

Seeing Wu Liang so happy, Xi Zhong was a little surprised.

When Xun Yu talked about this matter yesterday, he also thought about Wu Liang's intention of showing "Flying Slave" this time.

In his opinion, if this "flying slave" can really be domesticated, the most affordable way to use it is undoubtedly to keep silent about the domestication method and turn it into something unique to oneself, so as to ensure that he is unique His status made Boss Cao have to rely heavily on him.

But looking at it now, Wu Liang obviously didn't have that intention, and actually offered it without reservation?

It seems.

It seems that the last test project can be carried out directly...

Sure enough, as he thought.

After Boss Cao read the content on the silk, he folded it up carefully and put it in his arms contentedly, then looked at Wu Liang's face with admiration even more, and said with a smile: "Talent is indeed one of the few in the world. Some talents are just too frightened to be able to lead the army to fight, which is a pity, but now that Zhang Miao has escaped, the prefect of Chenliu has become vacant. Why don't I write a letter to dismiss Zhang Miao and take you as Chen? How do you feel about being talented?"

Now the world is in chaos, the imperial court has basically been suspended, and the administration of officials is also very chaotic, especially the administration of local officials.

Zhu Haoqiang can almost do whatever he wants on his own territory, saying that he is recommending or dismissing in a letter, but in fact it is just a formality to prepare a case.

In the end, no matter whether the court agrees or not, no matter what the status of the appointed person is, and whether the local gentry and celebrities are convinced, this matter is so settled.

But strictly speaking, such official positions do not belong to various tyrants, but to officials within the imperial establishment.

Therefore, there are still countless people who sharpen their heads and want to get such an official position. After all, this is an official in the orthodox sense, which means they have truly entered the officialdom.

result.

"The general will object!"

Before Boss Cao could finish speaking, Wu Liang immediately changed his previous obedience, raised his head and said loudly.

"The prefect Chenliu's salary is much higher than yours now, why do you object?"

Boss Cao frowned, seemingly displeased.

"Of course, the more the salary, the better, but the general will not be an official of the Han Dynasty, but only an official of the envoy!"

Wu Liangyi said righteously, "If it wasn't for the faintness and weakness of the Han court, how could the general be forced to become a bandit before? The general dislikes the Han court very much, so when digging the ancestral graves of the Han family, the general will have no regrets." On the contrary, the general does not care about the birth of the general, and the general can use his talents in the Huren army, so that the general can have a good life today, so even if he is an official, the general only wants to be under the command of the general. The official, swear to the death that he will not have anything to do with the Han court, please make sure you take it back!"

Heh heh heh, have you seen the routine of "Blind Xiahou"?
In history, Xiahou Dun was known as the "General Meat Ticket". Not only was he kidnapped by Lu Bu, but he also had no outstanding achievements.

And all the way to sit in the safest rear area, manage the internal formation and logistics, but can become the most important general of Cao Boss, and even the reason why Cao Wei's number one general...

Wu Liang analyzed it, and it should be related to his "not accepting the Han post".

And in stark contrast... I'm really sorry, I have to pull Xun Yu out to "whip the corpse" again.

This great hero who has the "talent of Wang Zuo" who has assisted Boss Cao for half his life, when Boss Cao coerced the emperor to order the princes, finally unified the northern officials to the prime minister, and was about to be further promoted to be the Duke of Jin and Wei, he openly stood up and resolutely opposed it, causing Boss Cao "couldn't calm down" and finally ended up in a tragic death...

Regarding the reason why Xun Yu suddenly stood up and resolutely opposed Boss Cao to be the Duke of Jin and Wei, there is a saying in later generations: "Xun Yu was loyal not to Cao Cao in his life, but to the Han Dynasty, so he spared no effort to help Cao Cao complete his hegemony before. It is also hoped that Boss Cao can help the Han family when he achieves hegemony, so when he finds out that Cao Cao has moved the heart of arrogance, he will stand up and firmly oppose it."

Personally, Wu Liang agrees with this statement.

After all, everyone has their own position when doing something. Xun Yu suddenly stood on the opposite side of Boss Cao. Only this position is the most reasonable.

Therefore, Boss Cao painstakingly came up with this proposition, which to Wu Liang was no different from an open-book exam.

"Is this true?"

After hearing Wu Liang's words, the displeasure on Boss Cao's face disappeared, and he stood up in surprise again, as if he was more delighted than having obtained the secret of domesticating "Flying Slave".

Xi Zhong next to him also changed from his previous aloofness, with a look of appreciation on his face, and nodded slightly to Boss Cao.

"Of course it is true. As long as the envoy says something, he will not hesitate to ask the general to dig up the ancestral graves of the Han family. What's more, it is still unknown whether the salary will be paid on time for this Han family that has long existed in name only. You're not stupid, and you're going to swear to the death!"

Wu Liang nodded solemnly, but what he said showed the true nature of a small person, consistent with the first time he met Boss Cao.

"Hahaha, well said!"

Boss Cao had already stepped forward and patted him heavily on the shoulder, and laughed loudly, "From now on, I will designate you as Captain Mojin, commanding the Huan army, with an annual salary of [-] stones. Whose salary is missing, and I will never lose your salary!"

　I'm so tired, I'm a bit confused, I've written more than 8000 words today, I don't know if I can continue to write tonight, everyone, go to bed first, don't wait.

　　Thanks to the two bosses [Monk with a Gun] and [None] for their support.
